Answer:

x =2                         x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

|2x - 1| + 3 = 6.

Subtract 3 from each side

|2x - 1| + 3-3 = 6-3

|2x - 1|= 3

An absolute value has two solutions, one positive and one negative

2x-1 =3                   2x -1 = -3

Add 1 to all sides

2x-1+1 =3+1             2x-1+1 = -3+1

2x = 4                      2x =-2

Divide by 2

2x/2 = 4/2                 2x/2 = -2/2

x =2                         x = -1

Steps to solve:

|2x - 1| + 3 = 6

~Subtract 3 to both sides

|2x - 1| = 3

~Since we are working with an absolute value, one answer will be positive and one will be negative.

2x - 1 = 3

~Add 1 to both sides

2x = 4

~Divide 2 to both sides

x = 2

2x - 1 = -3

~Add 1 to both sides

2x = -2

~Divide 2 to both sides

x = -1

Best of Luck!

FIRST PERSON WHO ANSWERS THIS WILL BE BRAINLIEST
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

2.- 100

Step-by-step explanation 1:

\frac{7}{25} + \frac{3}{4} = \frac{28}{100} + \frac{75}{100} = \frac{103}{100}

↑ As we can see, the only common multiple between 4 and 25 that is given to is 100.

Step-by-step explanation 2:

\frac{(7 * 4) + (3 * 25)}{4 * 25} = \frac{28 * 75}{100} = \frac{103}{100}

↑ Another way of knowing the answer is by using a fraction solving method. As we can see, the denominator is once again 100.

Hope it helped,

If the end points of the diameter of a circle are (9,4) and (5,2) what is the standard form equation of the circle
timurjin [86]

Answer:

(x - 7)² + (y - 3)² = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The center (h , k) is the midpoint of two end points of diameter

h = (9 + 5) / 2 = 7

k = (4 + 2) / 2 = 3

Equation of circle: (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

r = (√(9 - 5)² + (4 - 2)²) / 2 = √5

Equation: (x - 7)² + (y - 3)² = 5
