Mathematics
1 answer:
Ronch [10]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:x=−1 or x=−4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

3(|2x+5|)−9=0

Step 1: Add 9 to both sides.

3(|2x+5|)−9+9=0+9

3(|2x+5|)=9

Step 2: Divide both sides by 3.

3(|2x+5|)

3

=

9

3

|2x+5|=3

Step 3: Solve Absolute Value.

|2x+5|=3

We know either2x+5=3or2x+5=−3

2x+5=3(Possibility 1)

2x+5−5=3−5(Subtract 5 from both sides)

2x=−2

2x

2

=

−2

2

(Divide both sides by 2)

x=−1

2x+5=−3(Possibility 2)

2x+5−5=−3−5(Subtract 5 from both sides)

2x=−8

2x

2

=

−8

2

(Divide both sides by 2)

x=−4

Answer: x=−1 or x=−4

Alexeev081 [22]
Assume the following:

Brad has been in the soccer team for b years.

Scot has been in the soccer team for s years.


"The number of years that brad has been on the soccer team is 2 less than 5 times the number of years that Scott has"

means: b=5s-2


"in total,the boys have been on the soccer team for 10 years."

means: b+s=10


so we have the equations:

i) 
b=5s-2

ii) 
b+s=10


substitute b in ii) with 5s-2, as they are equal, from i

(5s-2)+s=10

5s-2+s=10

6s=12

s=2, 


then , from b+s=10, b=8


Answer: Brad has been in the team for 8 years.

An art museum has 1042 pictures of split equally into 45 different exhibits how many more pictures does a museum need to make su
tatyana61 [14]
He needs 1080 I believe so 38
because 1042 divided for 45 museums would be 23.15 meaning it wouldn't be the same amount for all
but if they get 38 pictures (1080) and divide it between the 45 museums it would be an even number of 24
so the answer is 38 more pictures
