Answer:

{-2, 4}

Step-by-step explanation:

|x - 1| = 3

There are two cases, one positive and one negative

x - 1 = 3  and  x-1 = -3

Add 1 to each side

x-1+1 = 3+1    x-1+1 = -3+1

x =4                 x = -2

Answer:  The correct option is

(A) {-2, 7}.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the solution set of the following :

|x-1|=3~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)

We will be using the following property of modulus :

|y|=b~~\Rightarrow y=b~or~y=-b.

So, from (i), we get

|x-1|=3\\\\\Rightarrow x-1=3~~or~~x-1=-3\\\\\Rightarrow x=3+1~~~~\Rightarrow x=-3+1\\\\\Rightarrow x=4,-2.

Thus, the required solution set is {-2, 4}.

Option (A) is CORRECT.

В рулоне 32 метров ткани. Отрезали одну восьмую часть. Сколько
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

28 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The question in English is</em></u>

On a 32-meter roll of fabric, it cuts an eighth of the total. How many meters of fabric are left in a roll?

step 1

we know that

To find out how many meters of fabric were cut, multiply the total meters by the fraction that was cut

32(\frac{1}{8})=4\ m

step 2

To find out how many meters of fabric are left, subtract the meters of fabric that were cut from the total meters of fabric

so

32-4=28\ m
