-3|x+7|= -12
⇒ |x+7|= -12/(-3)
⇒ |x+7|= 4
⇒ x+7= 4 or x+7= -4
⇒ x= 4-7 or x= -4 -7
⇒ x= -3 or x= -11

Final answer: x= -3 or x= -11~

-3Ix + 7I = -12              (divide -3 from each side)

Ix + 7I = -12/3

Ix + 7I = -4

x + 7 = -4     or      -x - 7 = -4

 x = -11          or       -x = 3  
                                  x = - 3


x = -3 or -11

Does the point (9.5, 144) make sense in this context? Explain
Stolb23 [73]
No, (9.5, 144) does not make sense because there is no point of 9.5 and when you divide the ounces of water by the flavoring packets you end up with 12, and if you were to simplify that it would end up with 1 flavor packet and 12 ounces of water.

Solve this equation with substitution method :-<br> x+5 = 3 (y+5)<br> x-5 = 7 (y-5)
Damm [24]
From the first equation,
x+5 = 3(y+5)
x = 3y + 15 - 5
Now substitue x in the second equation with (3y +15 - 5).
x-5 = 7(y-5)
(3y+15-5) - 5 = 7(y-5)
3y +5 = 7y - 35
-4y = - 40
y = 10

Since y is 10, and x is (3y +15 - 5),
x = 30 + 15 - 5 = 40

7:45 -1 hour=6:45

The concert started at 6:45


7:45+2 hours=9:45

The concert will be over at 9:45

The time outside the theater is

5:30a.m. or 5:30p.m.

It's most likely 5:30p.m. as 5:30a.m. is really early in the morning.
