Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
5|x| + 3 < 18
Subtract 3 from each side
5|x| + 3-3 < 18-3
5|x| < 15
Divide by 5
5|x| /5 < 15/5
|x| < 3
There are two solutions for an absolute value, one positive and one negative ( the negative flips the inequality)
x <3 and x > -3
The equation is y=-1/2x-1
Answer:
distribute parenthesis
Step-by-step explanation:
6(2x + 1) = 4x - 5 ← distribute parenthesis on left side
12x + 6 = 4x - 5 ( subtract 4x from both sides )
8x + 6 = - 5 ( subtract 6 from both sides )
8x = - 11 ( divide both sides by 8 )
x = -
