If |x + 7| = 12

That means x + 7 either equals 12 or -12. So, you solve for both cases.

x + 7 = 12

Subtract 7 from both sides.

x = 5

---

x + 7 = -12

Subtract 7 from both sides.

x = -19

So, x can be 5 or -19.

A farm had 480 acres more wheat than corn. After the farmers collected 80% of the wheat and 25% of the corn, the area of the whe

Sergio [31]

The area covered by corn is x
The area covered by wheat is (x+480)
After 80% of wheat was collected, the new area was:
20/10(x+480)
=1/5(x+480)
After 25% of the corn was collected, the new area was:
75/100x
=3/4x
New area equation will be:
(3/4)x=1/5(x+480)+300
(3/4x)=(1/5)x+96+300
solving for x we get:
11/20x=396
x=720
thus the original area of corn was 720 acres
Original area of wheat was 720+480=1200 acres
