Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given Ben's observations when the wait time is as advertised represented by the equation 2|x − 2| − 12 = 0, to get the times when the serving time is as advertised, relative to noon, we will calculate for the value of x in the equation;
Note that the modulus of the function |x-2| will return both positive and negative value.
For the positive value of |x-2|;
2|x − 2| − 12 = 0
2(x − 2) − 12 = 0
open the parenthesis
2x-4 - 12 = 0
2x - 16 = 0
add 16 to both sides
2x-16+16 = 0+16
2x = 16
x = 16/2
x = 8
For the negative value of |x-2|;
2|x − 2| − 12 = 0
-2(x − 2) − 12 = 0
open the parenthesis
-2x+4 - 12 = 0
-2x - 8 = 0
add 8 to both sides
-2x-8+8 = 0+8
-2x = 8
x = -8/2
x = -4
<em>Hence the times when the serving time is as advertised, relative to noon are 8minutes and 4minutes </em>
Ap comp science principals is really easy for an ap class, probably because its an intro course, i took it this year, don’t overwhelm yourself id personally take precalc honors
-1 because x is 4 so you just plug it in and 4-8 is -4 and -4/4 is -1.
Answer:
784m^2
Step-by-step explanation:
is a rectangle with sides of 40m and 20m, in the upper right corner a right triangle has been removed with the legs of: 40 - 32 = 8m and 20 - 16 = 4m, we find the area of the rectangle (b * h).
40 * 20 = 800m ^ 2, then we find the area of the right triangle
1/2 b * h: 1/2 8 * 4 = 16 m ^ 2.
we remove the area of the triangle from the rectangle and we have the area of the figure: 800 - 16 = 784m^2
