So first, you get the absolute value to one side:

Next, set up two equations; One where the value inside the absolute value lines is positive, and another where it is negative, and solve both for the variable:

Your answers are
8 and -8, or +-8.
Y - x = 154
let z = xy = x(154 + x) = x^2 + 154x
we need to find the minimum value of z
z' = 2x + 154 which = zero for minm or maxm value
x = -77 and y = 154 -77 = 77
so the 2 numbers are -77 and 77
Answer:
y= 12
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3 y + 7 = 15
Subtract 7 from each side
2/3 y + 7-7 = 15-7
2/3 y = 8
Multiply each side by 3/2 to isolate y
3/2 * 2/3 y = 3/2 * 8
3/2 * 2/3 y = 3 * 4
y = 12
Answer:
9 years
the tree doubles in height
we can make a model
1 x 2 = 2
2 x 2 = 4
4 x 2 = 8
8 x 2 = 16
16 x 2 = 32
32 x 2 = 64
64 x 2 = 128
128 x 2 = 256
256 x 2 = 512
512 x 2 = 1024
Let's say 1024 is the maximum height
half the maximum height is 1024 x 0.5 = 512 so it will take 9 years because it reached 512 on the 9th year
