(1) has solutions x = 3, x= - 1.5 and (2) has no solution

solving each equation

(1)

add 5 to both sides

|4x - 3 | = 9 ( remove bars from absolute value )

4x - 3 = 9 or 4x - 3 = - 9 ( by definition )

4x = 9 + 3 = 12 or 4x = - 9 + 3 = - 6

x = 3 or x = - 1.5

(2)

subtract 8 from both sides

|2x + 3 | = - 5

the absolute value cannot be equal to a negative quantity

thus |2x + 3 | = - 5 has no solution

Answer:

The solutions to equation 1 are x = 3, −1.5, and equation 2 has no solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearranging the two equations, you get ...

  • |4x -3| = 9 . . . . . has two solutions
  • |2x +3| = -5 . . . . has no solutions (an absolute value cannot be negative)

The above-listed answer is the only one that matches these solution counts.

_____

Testing the above values of x reveals they are, indeed, solutions to Equation 1.

a bag holds 1200 marbles colored either blue, red, green, or pink. there are 2 more blue than green, 6 more green than red and 6
krek1111 [17]
B = 2 + g . . . (1)
g = 6 + r . . . (2)
r = 6 + p . . . (3)

Putting (3) into (2) gives:
g = 6 + 6 + p = 12 + p . . . (4)
Putting (4) into (1) gives:
b = 2 + 12 + p = 14 + p . . . (5)

b + g + r + p = 1200
2 + g + 6 + r + 6 + p + p = 1200
2 + 12 + p + 6 + 6 + p + 6 + p + p = 1200
32 + 4p = 1200
4p = 1200 - 32 = 1168
p = 292

From (5), b = 14 + p = 14 + 292 = 306

Therefore, there are 306 blue mables.

Can anyone help? i’ll mark brainliest

|4x + 4| = 15

First, let's get rid of the absolute value signs to get the first solution.

4x + 4 = 15

Subtract 4 from both sides

4x = 11

Divide each side by 4

x = 11/4 or 2.75

Now, let's get the solution by changing 15 to -15.

4x + 4 = -15

Subtract 4 from both sides

4x = -19

Divide both sides by 4

x = -19/4 or -4.75
