Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

|x+6|=|x-12|

x+6=±(x-12)

when x+6=x-12

6=-12

which is impossible hence rejected.

x+6=-(x-12)

x+6=-x+12

x+x=12-6

2x=6

x=6/2=3

so x=3

Answer:

The measure of angle A is 32

Step-by-step explanation:

A+B=180

2x-16+5x+28=180

7x+12=180

7x=168

x=24

A=2(24)-16

A=48-16

A=32

Answer: 4.5 hours

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

$Ana: \dfrac{1}{10}\ \text{job per hour}\\\\Nina: \dfrac{1}{x}\ \text{job per hour}\\\\Together: \dfrac{1}{3}\ \text{job per hour}\\\\\\Ana + Nina = Together\\\dfrac{1}{10}\quad +\dfrac{1}{x}\quad =\quad \dfrac{1}{3}\\\\\\\dfrac{1}{10}(30x)+\dfrac{1}{x}(30x) =\dfrac{1}{3}(30x)\\\\\\\rightarrow\quad 3x+30=10x\\\\.\quad 3x+30=10x\\\underline{-3x\qquad \quad -3x\quad}\\.\qquad \quad 30=7x\\\\.\qquad \quad \dfrac{30}{7}=\dfrac{7x}{7}\\\\\\.\qquad \quad \dfrac{30}{7}=x$
