What is the solution of 2|2x-1|-8=18?

Maurinko [17]

Solve for $|2x-1|$ :

$2|2x-1|-8=18\implies2|2x-1|=26\implies|2x-1|=13$

Now if $2x-1\ge0$ , we have $|2x-1|=2x-1$ and

$2x-1=13\implies2x=14\implies x=7$

On the other hand, if $2x-1$ , then $|2x-1|=-(2x-1)=1-2x$ and

$1-2x=13\implies-2x=12\implies x=-6$

DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO DO THIS???

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

Cost of a pound of chocolate chips: $3.5

Cost of a pound of walnuts: $1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

x - cost of a pound of chocolate chips

y - cost of a pound of walnuts

We create two equations based on the information we have:

3x+2y=13

8x+4y=33

The whole point of these problems os to get rid of x or y. In this question, we can do this by multiplying both sides of the first equation by 2, and then subtracting it from the second equation:

8x+4y=33

6x+4y=26

2x=7

x=3.5

Then we change x for 3.5 in the first equation:

3×3.5+2y=13

10.5+2y=13

2y=2.5

y=1.25

Hope this helps!

Luba_88 [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

The points of line AB are; (-1,-4) and (2,11).

Note:

Use double point formula and simplify it to get two eqaution.
Use condition of parallel lines, perpendicular lines to know whether the lines are parallel or perpendicular or nothing.
