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

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

check attachment

f(x,y)=xy       Δf(2,5)

fx=y = 5

fy=x = 2

Gradient Vector:

<5,2>

Tangent Vector:

0=fx(x-2) + fy(y-5)

0=5(x-3) + 2(y-2)

11=5x+2y
