Explain how to solve 4|3x-1|+1=8​

Mathematics
1 answer:
denis-greek [22]3 years ago
8 0

4|3x - 1| + 1 = 8

4|3x - 1| = 8 - 1

4|3x - 1| = 7

|3x - 1| = 7/4

Now lets think, we have 3x - 1 in module, so either its 7/4 or -7/4, we will have 7/4 at the end because of it, so we may have 2 solutions in this case:

3x - 1 = 7/4

and

3x - 1 = -7/4

So let's see:

3x - 1 = 7/4

3x = 7/4 + 1

3x = 11/4

x = 11/12

3x - 1 = -7/4

3x = -7/4 + 1

3x = -3/4

x = -1/4

So we have two possible answers, x = 11/2 and x = -1/4

Gambler is deciding whether or not to take a bet. she must pay $40 to take the bet, but if she wins, she willprofit$225.theproba
Vesnalui [34]
Expected value of the bet is
the sum of the products of value of outcome and its probability,
less the amount paid to place the bet.

Outcomes value probability
win            225    1/4
lose               0    3/4
cost of bet = 40

So expected value of bet
E[X]=225*(1/4)+0*(3/4)-40
=56.25-40
=16.25

This means that in the long run, gambler will win, since the expected value is positive.  (does NOT mean she will win in the next bet!)

Answer:

6 x (-4)

= (-24)

NOTE: if a number doesn't have a sign, it's a positive number
