Given:
Sulfur ion has 16 protons and 18 electrons.

Protons have a charge of +1
electrons have a charge of -1

(16 protons * +1 charge) + (18 electrons * -1 charge) = +16 - 18 = -2

The net charge is -2.

Solve for x in each of the equations or inequalities below, and name the property and/or properties used:
nordsb [41]

Answer

a) 3/4 x = 9

    x = \dfrac{9\times 4}{3}

    x = 12

b)  10+ 3x = 5x

     2 x = 10

        x = 5

c) a + x = b

       x = b - a

d) c x = d

      x =  \dfrac{d}{c}

e)  \dfrac{1}{2} x - g < m

     \dfrac{1}{2} x< m + g

              x  < 2( m + g)

f) q + 5 x = 7 x - r

   q + r = 2 x

      x = \dfrac{q + r}{2}

How do you solve this equation: -2m+3=|15+m|
Elden [556K]

Any number inside the modulus sign becomes positive. This means |15+m|=|-(15+m)|=|-15-m| and so we have,

-2m+3=|15+m| \Rightarrow \left \Big\{ {{-2m+3=15+m} \atop{-2m+3=-15-m}} \right

Solving these gives us

-2m+3=15+m \Rightarrow m=-4

-2m+3=-15-m \Rightarrow = m=18

However if we check the second solution in the original equation we obtain -2(18)+3=|15+18| \Rightarrow -33=33. This is false and so m=18 can't be a solution.

Therefore the only solution is m=-4.

(Note: I'm not sure why the second solution didn't work but when there's a modulus sign involved it always pays to check your final answers to be sure. I'll have a think about it but in case you find out before I do, I'd be interested to know in the comments.)

Use the site called Desmos, it's a graphing calculator and should help you in all the ways you need. It isn't complex. Just put that equation in a box and it graphs it for you.
