Answer: 3 buses
Step-by-step explanation: If 54 students fit on a bus, and 125 students are in 8th grade,
You should divide.
125 divided by 54 is 2.31...
we can't have 2.31... buses, so we say 3 buses.
|a| = b gives
a =b or a = -b
so,
|-x| = -10
gives
-x = -10 or -x = 10
x = 10, -10
now let us verify,
when x = 10, |-10| = +10 and it is not = -10
so, x= 10 is NOT a solution.
when x = -10, |-(-10)| = |10| = 10 and it is not = -10
so, x= -10 is NOT a solution.
hence, this equation does not have a solution.
If we know that |...| can never be negative, we can directly deduce that this equation does not have any solution.
2/3 would be bigger
I hope that helps
