|2x-5|=9 what is the positive and negative answer

Mathematics
1 answer:
irinina [24]4 years ago
6 0
  • Answer:

x = 7 or x = -2

  • Explanation:

|2x − 5| = 9 and |2x − 5| = -9

  • |2x − 5| = 9

Add 5 to both sides

2x - 5 + 5 = 9 + 5

Simplify

2x = 14

Divide both sides by 2

2x / 2 = 14 / 2

<u>x = 7</u>

  • |2x − 5| = -9

Add 5 to both sides

2x - 5 + 5 = -9 + 5

Simplify

2x = -4

Divide both sides by 2

2x / 2 = -4 / 2

<u>x = -2</u>

Find the ratio of cans of fruit to the total number of food items collected.
Butoxors [25]
First add all the items together:

6 + 4 + 7 + 4 = 21

then we compare 6 and 21 and look for common factors, 6 and 21 have the common factor 3 so we divide them both by 3 to get 2 and 7. since 2 and 7 have no common factors our answer is

2:7

This means for every 2 cans of fruit there are 7 total items and vice versa.

What is the mixed number for 56/10
andre [41]
Well, 10 can go into 56, 5 times, so your whole number would be 5.
Then 50 (where did i get 50 from? 5 times the ten is 50) minues 56 is 6. So it would be : 
5 and 6/10 (your denominator stays the same)
But it needs o be simplafied to its lowest terms. They are both divisable by 2, SOO 6 divided by 2 is 3, and 10 divided by 2 is 5 So, your new fraction is:
5 and 3/5 in which it cant be simplafied anymore.
<em>~ 5  3/5 </em><em>is your answer :)</em>
