We know there is 57 members are in the math club and there is twice as many sixth grades than the seventh. To find out how many sixth graders are in the club, we do:
x = seventh graders
2x = sixth graders
2x + x = 3x
57=3x
57 ÷ 3 = 3x ÷3
19 = x
So there is 19 seventh graders and 19×2= 38 sixth graders
y=5, x=7 because if 3x5=15 then 15-7=8 dont report me if i do get this wrong
Answer:
Solution set = {-12, 12}
Step-by-step explanation:
Start by dividing both sides of the given equation by negative one, to get rid of the negative signs on both sides:

Now we consider the two possible cases:
1) The expression inside the absolute value symbol is a positive number, then :

and replacing it in the equation, this becomes:

which is our first answer.
2) The expression inside the absolute value symbol is a negative number, then :

and replacing it in the equation, this becomes:

which is our second possible answer.
Then the set of solutions is: {-12, 12}
Answer:
