This is how it is done. Let me know if you have questions...
Answer:
You could just replace all the given possible values of k in the inequality and see which ones are solutions, but let's solve this in a more interesting way:
First, remember how the absolute value works:
IxI = x if x ≥ 0
IxI = -x if x ≤ 0
Then if we have something like:
IxI < B
We can rewrite this as
-B < x < B
Now let's answer the question, here we have the inequality:
I-k -2I < 18
Then we can rewrite this as:
-18 < (-k - 2) < 18
Now let's isolate k:
first, we can add 2 in the 3 parts of the inequality:
-18 + 2 < -k - 2 + 2 < 18 + 2
-16 < -k < 20
Now we can multiply all sides by -1, remember that this also changes the direction of the signs, then:
-1*-16 > -1*-k > -1*20
16 > k > -20
Then k can be any value between these two limits.
So the correct options (from the given ones) are:
k = -16
k = -8
k = 0
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
let the integers be x and y
x+y=-20
y=-20-x
xy=99
x(-20-x)=99
-20x-x²=99
x²+20x+99=0
x²+11x+9x+99=0
x(x+11)+9(x+11)=0
(x+11)(x+9)=0
x=-11,-9
when x=-11
-11+y=-20
y=-20=11=-9
when x=-9
-9+y=-20
y=-20+9=-11
so integers are -11,-9

Answer:
-5v+4
Step-by-step explanation:
Remove the parentheses and combine the like terms:
-2v + (-4) + 8 + (-3v)
-2v -4 + 8 -3v [Remove parentheses]
-5v +4 [Combine like terms]
<u>-5v +4 </u>
