Mathematics

Let's do this step by step:
Subtract both sides by 7
-2|x-4|= -10
Divide each side by -2
|x-4|= 5
Now since this is an absolute value equation, you will have two answers. This means you make the equation both positive and negative.
X-4= 5and -(x-4)= 5
Solve for x for both
X-4= 5: add four on both sides
X= 9
-x+ 4= 5: subtract 4 and divide by -1
X= -1
So your answer is: X= -1 , 9

We can solve for x using a technique called successive approximations. step 1: if we assume that x is very small compared to 0.1
STALIN [3.7K]

Supposed that we are given the equation:

7.20 x 10^-5 = x(0.100+x)^2 

 

So assuming that x is very small so that:

0.100 + x ~ 0.100

and calling it x1, so:

 

7.20 x 10^-5 = x1 (0.100)^2 

Then we simply solve for x1:

 

x1 = 7.20 x 10^-5 / (0.100)^2 

<span>x1 = 7.20 x 10^-3</span>
