Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x = the number of phone available
If it would require 8 more phones, then the total number of phones will be x + 8.
A company hired an additional 12 employees, and every employee needed a phone, then
x + 8 = 12
x = 4
This means 4 phones were available (and 8 more needed to total in 12 phones for 12 new employees)
Hence, correct option is option A.
Answer:
=
Step-by-step explanation:
8.5 is also 8 and 1/2, it just has negative signs infront
The answer is obviously the second one B or number two
Your basically building a new equation with the two functions given to you.
(sqrt(3x + 7)) + (sqrt(3x - 7)) = 0
Then just open up the brackets and simplify further.
sqrt(3x + 7) + sqrt(3x - 7)= 0
Nothing to special really happened there, just removed the brackets. Now you move one of the radicals to the other side so you can square the whole equation.
sqrt(3x + 7) = - sqrt(3x - 7)
Then go ahead and square both sides to remove the radical.
3x + 7 = 3x - 7
Now if you kept trying to isolate x, you find that both sides will just cancel each other out and you are left with,
7 = -7
Since that statement isn't true your answer will be that there is no solution to this equation.
