Answer:

Marnie has bounced basketball 78 times on the second try.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of times ball dribble before first try be x and number of times of dribble before second try be y.

Total number of times ball dribbled after two tries = 88

x+ y = 88 ...[1]

After first try that before second try. she has 2 fewer dribbles than 8x.

y=8x-2...[2]

Putting value of y in [1], we gte:

x = 10

y = 8 × 10 - 2 = 78

Marnie has bounced basketball 78 times on the second try.

First try: 10 dribbles, Second try: 78 dribbles, 10x8=80, 80-2=78, 78+10=88

Please i need help please help me out!

Answer:

1. 13 or -13

2. -5 < y < -3

3. 6 or -6

4. 1/8 or -1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Clear the absolute-value bars by splitting the equation into its two cases, one for the Positive case and the other for the Negative case.

The Absolute Value term is |x|

 For the Negative case we'll use -(x) 

For the Positive case we'll use (x) 

Step  3  :

Solve the Negative Case

      -(x) = 13 

     Multiply

      -x = 13 

     Multiply both sides by (-1)

      x = -13 

     Which is the solution for the Negative Case

Step  4  :

Solve the Positive Case

      (x) = 13 

     Which is the solution for the Positive Case

Step  5  :

Wrap up the solution

 x=-13

 x=13

But for the case of question (2) its a different pattern..

Since this is a "less than" absolute-value inequality, my first step is to clear the absolute value according to the "less than" pattern. Then I'll solve the linear inequality.

| y + 4 | < 1

–1 < y + 4 < 1

This is the pattern for "less than". Continuing, I'll subtract 3 from all three "sides" of the inequality:

–1 – 4 < y + 4 - 4 < 1 – 4

–5 < y < -3

- 5 < y <  - 3

The solution to the original absolute-value inequality, | y + 4 | <  1 , is the interval:

- 5 < y  <  - 3

Write an equation in slope-intercept form (y=mx+b) for the line that has a slope of 12 and passes through the point (3, 20).
velikii [3]

Answer:

y=12x-16

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to find the equation for a line that passes through the point (3,20) and has a slope of 12.

First of all, remember what the equation of a line is:

y = mx+b

Where:

m is the slope, and

b is the y-intercept

To start, you know what m is; it's just the slope, which you said was 12. So you can right away fill in the equation for a line somewhat to read:

y=12x+b.

Now, what about b, the y-intercept?

To find b, think about what your (x,y) point means:

(3,20). When x of the line is 3, y of the line must be 20.

Because you said the line passes through this point, right?

Now, look at our line's equation so far: . b is what we want, the 12 is already set and x and y are just two "free variables" sitting there. We can plug anything we want in for x and y here, but we want the equation for the line that specfically passes through the the point (3,20).

So, why not plug in for x the number 3 and for y the number 20? This will allow us to solve for b for the particular line that passes through the point you gave!.

(3,20). y=mx+b or 20=12 × 3+b, or solving for b: b=20-(12)(3). b=-16.

The equation of the line that passes through the point (3,20) with a slope of 12

is

y=12x-16
