The correct answers are the x = 6 and x = 0.
In order to find this, we can follow the order of operations.
–4|–2x + 6| = –24
Divide by -4
|–2x + 6| = 6
Since it is now equal to a absolute value, we have to solve for the positive and negative versions of the final answer. Let's start with the positive.
-2x + 6 = 6
-2x = 0
x = 0
Now for the negative
-2x - 6 = -6
-2x = -12
x = 6
These would be your two answers.
Answer:
B?
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of 5 consecutive integers is 120
third number = ?
third number will be the middle number of 5 consecutive integers
so if we divide 120 with 5 we get 24.
so 24 is the third number.
consecutive numbers are: 22, 23,24,25 and 26
22 + 23 +24 +25 +26 = 120
so, 24 is the third number
The equation for that statement is 58 * x - 136 = -70
