D. Although I'm not 100% sure
The answer would be 0 solutions.
Here, we see <em>|</em><em />x+6<em>|</em><em /> = 2.
Oh wow! A foreign object!
|x+6|... two lines... what is that?
That is called absolute value. Whatever is inside the two lines, must have a positive answer!
Let's pretend we have a machine that has this absolute value function activated.
What we put in, we must get a positive answer out.
Let's put in -6.
-6 ==> BEEP BEEP ==> 6
Let's try 3.
3 ==> BEEP BEEP ==>3
Whatever we put in, if it is negative or positive, what comes out is always positive.
So, for how many values <em>x</em> is |x+6|=-2 true?
None, because the answer <em>must</em><em /> be positive!
-2 is not positive, <em>2</em><em /> is.
2/3(6c+4)-(8c-5)
1) Get rid of the negative signs
New equation (the ones in bold are the changes): 2/3(6c+4)+(-8c)+(5)
2) Use distributive property for the first part by multiplying 2/3*6c= 4c and 2/3*4= 2 2/3
New equation: 4c+2 2/3+ (-8c) + 5
3) Combine like terms: 4c+(-8c)= -4c and 2 2/3+5= 7 2/3
New and simplified equation: -4c+ 7 2/3
Answer:
A. (2x + 5)(2x - 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
Factor out the polynomial given.
(4x² - 25) = (2x - 5)(2x + 5)
Check: Use the FOIL method.
(2x)(2x) = 4x²
(2x)(5) = 10x
(2x)(-5) = -10x
(-5)(5) = -25
Simplify. Combine like terms: 4x² + 10x - 10x - 25 = 4x² - 25
A. (2x + 5)(2x - 5) is your answer

Answer:c(d) = 5 + (0.75*d)
Step-by-step :
In this equation the cost (c) of the distance traveled (d) has a base rate of 5, and increases by .75 for every mile traveled (d)
