2/8 of an hour is 15,and 2/6 of an hour is 20 minutes. 20-15 is 5 minutes
Not necessarily. the absolute value of a number is that number's distance from 0 on a number line. if your taking the absolute value of a negative value, what you stated would be true. however, what if you took the absolute value of a positive number? hope that answers your question.
Answer:
x=-38
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
3(x−6)−2(2x+3)=14
(3)(x)+(3)(−6)+(−2)(2x)+(−2)(3)=14(Distribute)
3x+−18+−4x+−6=14
(3x+−4x)+(−18+−6)=14(Combine Like Terms)
−x+−24=14
−x−24=14
Step 2: Add 24 to both sides.
−x−24+24=14+24
−x=38
Step 3: Divide both sides by -1.
−x
−1

38
−1
x=−38
Since the second equation gives a value for a, we can substitute it into the other equation to find a value for B.
Let's substitute b-2 into the first equation wherever there is an a.
a - 3b = 4
(b-2) - 3b = 4
b - 2 - 3b = 4
-2 - 2b = 4
-2b = 6
b = -3
Now let's find a by substituting -3 into either of the equations to find the value of a.
a = b - 2
a = -3 - 2
a = -5
So your solution set is (-5, -3)
