Answer:11,058
Step-by-step explanation:
Just subtract
In this question, we're trying to find the inequality that is true.
To find your answer, we can convert the numbers in the absolute value:
|−5| < 4:
5 < 4 <em>false</em>
|−4| < |−5|:
4 < 5 <em>true </em>
|−5| < |4|
5 < 4 <em>false</em>
|−4| < −5
4 < -5 <em>false</em>
The only true inequality here would be |−4| < |−5|, since it works with the inequality sign.
Answer:
|−4| < |−5|
Notice how on both sides of the equation there is one coefficient (number being multiplied by x) and a constant (just a plain number). You want all constants to be on one side and all coefficients on the other. He’s how do to that:
2x+14=-21-5
I am choosing that all constants will be on the right side, so I will do the inverse operation of any constant on the left side to remove it. Here, a constant on the left side is 14. I will subtract 14 from both sides of the equation. Positive 14 minus 14 is zero, so it cancels out and removes it.
2x+14-14 = -21-5x
2x = -35-5x
See how the 14 is now gone? The equation looks much simpler now. Okay next, you can see that there is a coefficient on the “constant side” that I’ve chosen, so I am going to remove that. Negative 5 plus positive 5 equals zero. Do this on both sides of the equation.
2x+5x = -35-5x+5x
7x = -35
Now the equation is just two numbers. All that is left to do is divide by the last coefficient, 7, in this case.
7x/7 = -35/7
x = -5
