Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2| x - 3 | + 5 = 17 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

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

| x - 3 | = 6

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

x - 3 = 6 OR -( x - 3) = 6

x - 3 = 6 ( add 3 to both sides )

x = 9

-( x - 3) = 6 ← distribute left side

- x + 3 = 6 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

- x = 3 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

x = - 3

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 = 9 → 2|9 - 3| + 5 = 2|6| + 5 = (2 × 6) + 5 = 12 + 5 = 17 ← True

x = - 3 → 2|- 3 - 3| + 5 = 2| - 6 | + 5 = (2 × 6) + 5 = 12 + 5 = 17 ← True

Hence x = 9 or x = - 3 are the solutions → a

Question 7 A number cube with faces labeled from 1 to 6 will be rolled once. The number rolled will be recorded as the outcome.

QveST [7]

Answer:

1) $S=\{1,2,3,4,5,6\}$

2) $O=\{1,3,5\}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A number cube with faces labeled from 1 to 6 will be rolled once. The number rolled will be recorded as the outcome.

To find : Give the sample space describing all possible outcomes. Then give all of the outcomes for the event of rolling an odd number. If there is more than one element in the set, separate them with commas ?

Solution :

A number cube with faces labeled from 1 to 6 will be rolled once.

The sample space describing all possible outcomes is given by

$S=\{1,2,3,4,5,6\}$

All of the outcomes for the event of rolling an odd number is given by

$O=\{1,3,5\}$

Land in downtown Columbia is valued at $10 a square foot. What is the value of a triangular lot with sides of lengths 119, 147,

stiks02 [169]

Answer:

$87,461

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the dimensions or sides of lengths of the triangle are 119, 147, and 190 ft

where S is the semi perimeter of the triangle, that is, s = (a + b + c)/2.

S = (119 + 147 + 190) / 2 = 456/ 2 = 228

Using Heron's formula which gives the area in terms of the three sides of the triangle

= √s(s – a)(s – b)(s – c)

Therefore we have = √228 (228 - 119)(228 - 147)(228 - 190)

=> √228 (109)(81)(38)

= √228(335502)

=√76494456

= 8746.1109071 * $10

= 87461.109071

≈$87,461

Hence, the value of a triangular lot with sides of lengths 119, 147, and 190 ft is $87,461.
