<h2>Answer</h2>

|x-7|=5

<h2>Explanation</h2>

We know that we need to write our absolute value equation as |x-b|=c. We also know that the solutions must be x=2 and x=12. We need to replace those values for x in our absolute value equation, so we can create a system of equations and find the values of  b and c.

- For x=2

|x-b|=c

|2-b|=c equation (1)

- For x=12

|x-b|=c

|12-b|=c equation (2)

Now we can solve our system of equations step-by-step:

Step 1. Replace equation (1) in equation (2)

|12-b|=|2-b|

Step 2. Square both sides of the equation to get rid of the absolute values

|12-b|=|2-b|

(12-b)^2=(2-b)^2

Step 3. Use the square of a binomial formula: (a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2 and solve the equation.

For our first binomial, (12-b)^2, a=12 and b=b; for our second binomial, (2-b)^2, a=2 and b=b

(12-b)^2=(2-b)^2

12^2-(2)(12)(b)+b^2=2^2-(2)(2)(b)+b^2

144-24b+b^2=4-4b+b^2

144-24b=4-4b

140=20b

b=\frac{140}{20}

b=7 equation (3)

Step 4. Replace equation (3) in equation (2) to find the value of c

|12-b|=c

|12-5|=c

|7|=c

c=7

Putting it all together we can conclude that our absolute value equation is |x-7|=5

Which congruence statements are true? Choose all answers that are correct?<br><br> A: B: C: D:
tester [92]

Answer:

Correct choices are A and C

Step-by-step explanation:

Inscribed angles property: The inscribed angles subtended by the same arc are equal.

1. Angles EFH and EGH are both inscribed angles subtended by the arc EH. Therefore, these angles are congruent (option A is true).

2. Angles GHF and GEF are both inscribed angles subtended by the arc GF. Therefore, these angles are congruent (option C is true).

3. Angles EGH and FHG are interior angles of the triangle KGH and can be congruent (if triangle is isosceles) or can be not congruent (in general). Thus, option B is false.

4. Angles EFH and FHG in general are not congruent. They can be congruent only when arcs EH and FG have the same measure. In general, option D is false.

The inequalities are matched with their correct graph respectively as follows:

  1. D ⇒ {(x, y): y > x²}.
  2. G ⇒ {(x, y): y ≥ x²+ 3
  3. C ⇒ {(x, y): y ≤ 3x² + 2}
  4. A ⇒ {(x, y): y ≥ 2x² - 5x + 1}
  5. J ⇒ x²- 3x ≥ 0
  6. H ⇒ x² - 3x + 2 ≤ 0
  7. B ⇒ {(x, y): y ≤ 1 - x²}
  8. B ⇒ {(x, y): y ≥ -1}

<h3>What is a graph?</h3>

A graph can be defined as a type of chart that's commonly used to graphically represent data on both the horizontal and vertical lines of a cartesian coordinate, which are the x-axis and y-axis.

<h3>What is an inequality?</h3>

An inequality can be defined as a mathematical relation that compares two (2) or more integers and variables in an equation based on any of the following arguments:

  • Less than (<).
  • Greater than (>).
  • Less than or equal to (≤).
  • Greater than or equal to (≥).

In Geometry, if the leading coefficient of a quadratic equation is greater than (>) zero, the parabolic curve would open upward while the parabolic curve would open downward when the leading coefficient of a quadratic equation is less than (<) zero.

How many odd numbers with 4 different digits, can be formed using the digits 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8? (No repetition is allowed)
olga55 [171]

Answer:

840 ( D )

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN DIGITS : 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8  

Number of odd numbers = 4

Number of even numbers = 4

therefore the number of odd numbers with 4 different digits can be formed by the same way the number of even numbers ( without repetition )

Hence the number of ways odd numbers with 4 different digits = Total number of ways of forming 4 digit numbers / 2

8*7*6*5 = 1680 / 2 =  840 ways
