The values of x are -22 and -2 and there are not extraneous solutions
<h3>How to solve the equation?</h3>
The equation is given as:
2|x + 7|= x - 8
Expand the absolute bracket
|2x + 14|= x - 8
Remove the absolute bracket
2x + 14 = x - 8 and 2x + 14 = -x + 8
Evaluate the like terms
x = -22 and 3x = -6
This gives
x = -22 and x = -2
Hence, the values of x are -22 and -2 and there are not extraneous solutions

Answer: Choice C) -1/3
The given line has a slope of -1/3 so anything parallel to that given line is also going to have an equal slope (of -1/3)
To find the slope of that line shown, notice how we drop down 1 unit and the move to the right 3 units when we go from the left point to the right point. Alternatively, you can use the slope formula m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) to get the same result.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation :
Let x be the number.
x × 8/100 =48
x =48 × 100/8
Now cut 48 by 8 and we get 6.
x = 6 ×100
x =600
So 600 is the required number.
Answer:
y=1x-4
Step-by-step explanation:
The original is
y=mx+b
m is the slope and b is the y intercept
