Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

7 | 3f + 4 | = 91 ← divide both sides by 7

| 3f + 4 | = 13

The absolute value function always returns a positive value, but the expression inside can be positive or negative. Thus there are 2 possible solutions.

Solve 3f + 4 = 13 → 3f = 13 - 4 = 9 ⇒ f = 3

Solve 3f + 4 = - 13 ⇒ 3f = - 13 - 4 = - 17 ⇒ f = - \frac{17}{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.

f = 3 : 7| 9 + 4| = 7| 13| = 7 × 13 = 91 ← True

f = - \frac{17}{3}

7 | - 17 + 4| = 7| - 13| = 7 × 13 = 91 ← True

Hence the correct solutions are B

The work of a student to solve the equation 2(5y – 2) = 12 + 6y is shown below: Step 1: 2(5y – 2) = 12 + 6y Step 2: 7y – 4 = 12
kirza4 [7]
2(5y - 2) = 12 + 6y
7y - 4 = 12 + 6y ⇒ wrong, it has to be: 10y - 4 = 12 + 6y

so the correct answer is B
