Answer:

$1000

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that,

Price of concrete = 0.02 dollars per pound

Tax rate on concrete = 0.03 per pound

Thus, the total cost of the concrete = 0.02 + 0.03 = 0.05 dollars per pound

Since, we know,

1 pound = 0.0005 tons

As, Cost of 1 pound = $0.05

i.e. Cost of 0.0005 tons = $0.05

Then, cost of 1 ton = \frac{0.5}{0.0005} = $1000.

Hence, the cost Tommy needs to pay is $1000.

Solve for x: −3|2x + 6| = −12 (1 point)
Alla [95]

Answer:

x = - 5, x = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 3 | 2x + 6 | = - 12 ( divide both sides by - 3 )

| 2x + 6 | = 4

The absolute value always returns a positive value, but the expression inside can be positive or negative, that is

2x + 6 = 4 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

2x = - 2 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = - 1

OR

- (2x + 6) = 4 ← distribute left side

- 2x - 6 = 4 ( add 6 to both sides )

- 2x = 10 ( divide both sides by - 2 )

x = - 5

As a check

Substitute these values into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side then they are the solutions.

x = - 1 → - 3| - 2 + 6 | = - 3 | 4 | = - 3 × 4 = - 12 ← True

x = - 5 → - 3 | - 10 + 6 | = - 3 | - 4 | = - 3 × 4 = - 12 ← True

Thus x = - 5 and x = - 1 are the solutions
