What is the solution to the following equation? |3x - 6| = 10

Mathematics

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Set up the following two equations, because of the absolute value:

3x-6=10

3x-6=-10

2) Solve both equations:

3x=16

3x=-4

3) Divide both sides by 3:

x=16/3

x=-4/3

4) Make fractions proper:

x=5 1/3

x=-1 1/3

Mr. Malone is contemplating which chauffeured car service to take to the airport. The first costs $28 upfront and $2 per mile. T
Ksju [112]

Answer:

The distance is 8 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to write an equation for each of chauffeured car services.

The first one = 28 + 2x = ?

The second one = 13 + 5x = ?

Next, we need to figure out what x is. Usually I just plug in random numbers, but I'm sure there's a better way to do it.

I first plugged in 2 as x.

28 + 4 = 32

13 + 10 = 23

That didn't work, so I then plugged in 5.

28 + 10 = 38

13 + 25 = 38

So 5 would be the correct answer for what is the distance.

Abby has x dolls. Lauren has 9 times as many as Abby. Betsy has 7 fewer than Lauren. How many dolls do they have in all?
makkiz [27]

Answer: x + 9x + (9x - 7)

Simplified: 19x - 7

Step-by-step explanation: We see that Abby already starts off with x dolls. We put a 9 infront of the x for the second part of the expression because Lauren has 9 times as many dolls as Abby. Since Betsy has 7 less than Lauren, we take away 7 from 9x. We put that part in parenthesis because that part needs to be done first before we add everything together. Once simplified, we have "19x - 7". (I really tried my best so I hope this is the correct answer!)
