Answer:
C: {−5, 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Starting with −2|−2x−4|=−12, divide both sides by -2:
|−2x−4| = 6
Reduce this by dividing all terms by 2:
|-x - 2| = 3
This is equivalent to x + 2 = 3 and x + 2 = - 3
Solving thse two equations, we get x = 1 and x = -5
And so the solution set is C: {−5, 1)
Answer:
V = 6.26 (2.5)
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of a cube is given by
V = s^3 where s is the side length
V = (2.5)^3
V = 6.26 (2.5)

Call the number of hardcover and paperback books, h and p.
Thus
h + p = 8 and the value equation is
4h + 2p = 26
Now multiply the top one by four and subtract from the second one...we get
4h + 2p = 26
-(4h + 4p = 32)
----------------
-2p = -6
p = 3 so that
h = 5 x + y = 8, (1)
4x + 2y = 26, (2)
where x and y are the numbers of hardcover and softcover books respectively.
To solve, multiply the equation (1) by 2 (both sides) and then distract it from the equation (2). You will get
4x - 2x = 26 - 16, or
2x = 10, or x = 5 - the number of hardcover books purchased.
Then from the equation (1) you get y = 3.
Check. 4*x + 2*3 = 4*5 + 2*3 = 26. OK.
