Solve for x: |2x 6| − 4 = 20

1 answer:

7 0

| 2x + 6| - 4 = 20 has two absolute values
solution 1
2x + 6 - 4 = 20 --> 2x + 2 = 20 --> 2x = 18 --> x = 9
2 (9) + 6 - 4 = 24- 4 = 20 ✔
solution 2
2x - 6 - 4 = 20 --> 2x - 10 = 20 --> 2x = 10 --> x = 5
2 (5) - 6 - 4 = 10- 10 = 0

3. For the equation-4y = &r, what is the constant of variation? (1 point)<br> ООО<br> 02

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

3).

$- 4y = 8x \\ \frac{y}{x} = \frac{8}{ - 4} \\ \frac{y}{x} = - 2 \\ y = - 2x \\ hence \: constant \: is \: - 2$

4).

$y \alpha x \\ y = kx \\ where \: k \: is \: the \: constant \: of \: proportionality \\ when \: y = 24 \: and \: x = 8 \\ substitute \: in \: y = kx \\ 24 = 8k \\ k = \frac{24}{8} \\ k = 3 \\ value \: of \: constant = 3$

If it was by 10, k = 3 by 10

k = 30

5).

$general \: equation \: of \: line \\ y = mx + c \\ but \: m = \frac{2}{3} \: and \: c = 9 \\ substitute \: for \: m \: and \: c \: in \: y = mx + c \\ y = \frac{2}{3} x + 9 \\ alternatively \\ 3y = 2x + 27$
