Let me work this out really quick and I'll get back to you
The solution of the equation is x = -4/3.
<h3>What does it mean to solve an equation?</h3>
An equation represents equality of two or more mathematical expression.
Solutions to an equation are those values of the variables involved in that equation for which the equation is true.
WE have been given an equation as;
|x - 4| = 5x + 12
In an absolute value equation, we solve the original expression as our first equation. Our second one is that we multiply the right side by -1.
Case 1: original equation
|x - 4| = 5x + 12
x - 4 = 5x + 12
x - 5x = 12 + 4
-4x = 16
x = -4
Case 2: Opposite equation
|x - 4| = 5x + 12
x - 4 = - (5x + 12)
x - 4 = - 5x - 12
x + 5x = -12 + 4
6x = -8
x = -4/3
Now we have two solutions. We need to check for extraneous solutions because of all the manipulations;
Check:
|x - 4| = 5x + 12
use x = -4
|-4 - 4| = 5(-4) + 12
| -8 | = -20 + 12
8 = -8
Thus, it is Not a solution
Now, |x - 4| = 5x + 12
use x = -4/3
| -4/3 - 4| = 5( -4/3) + 12
|-16/3 | = -20/3 + 12
|-16/3 | = 16/3
16/3 = 16/3
Thus, it is the Solution.

Answer:
<h2>m = 21, b = 5 → y = 21x + 5</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:
<em>m</em><em> - slope</em>
<em>b</em><em> - y-intercept → (0, b)</em>
The formula of a slope:
=====================================
From the table we have y-intercept (0, 5) → <em>b = 5 </em>and other point (1, 26).
Calculate the slope:
Answer:
no
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to be a function you should have one output for every input (or one y for every x). In this case there are multiple outputs for the number one which means the relationship isn't a function
Answer:
x= 63
Step-by-step explanation:
Get the x on one side
68 - 5= 63
