Answer:
p =2 p=-18
Step-by-step explanation:
|p+8|
-------------- = 5
2
Multiply each side by 2
|p+8|
-------------*2 = 5*2
2
|p+8| =10
There is a positive and a negative solution
p+8=10 p+8=-10
Subtract 8 from each side
p+8-8=10-8 p+8-8=-10-8
p =2 p=-18
Answer: The value of a is -6.
Step-by-step explanation:
To do this we need to find the y-intercept first.
-2= 4(1/2) + b
-2=2+ b
-2 -2
b= -4 so now the y-intercept is -4 so we will now have the equation y= 1/2x -4
so now put -4 into the equation for x and solve for y.
y= 1/2(-4) -4
y = -6
