Find x (steps pls) | x - 7| = 2 (i dunt understand the | in the questions)

Mathematics
1 answer:
kirill [66]3 years ago
3 0

these two bars |  | mean <u>absolute value</u>

here's how to find x

| x - 7| = 2

first apply the absolute rule

x - 7 = 2                 x - 7 = -2

in both equations add 7 on both sides

x - 7 + 7 = 2 + 7       x - 7 + 7 = -2 + 7

then simplify the expressions

x = 9                         x = 5

now combine these two solutions to get your answer

x = 9 or x = 5

hopefully my explanation helps

Ahmad drove 360miles in 5hours.<br> At the same rate, how long would it take him to drive 864miles?
AVprozaik [17]

It will take Ahmad 12 hours to drive 864 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Find the speed of Ahmad.

Distance = 360 miles

Time = 5 hours

⇒ Speed = Distance/Time = 360/5 = 72 miles/hour

  • Step 2: Find the time required to drive 864 miles

⇒ Time = Distance/Speed = 864/72 = 12 hours

1. The x-intercepts are x = 0 and x = 6. You can find these by looking for where the line crosses the x-axis. You can see here that it does so at 0 and 6.


2. The maximum value for this function is looking for the f(x) value at the highest point. In this case, you will see that f(x) at the highest point is 120. This happens at x = 3. Once again, this can be found just by looking for the highest point on the graph.


3. Since that is the absolute highest point, it is also the point where is goes from increasing to decreasing. As a result, we know the increasing interval is x<120 and the decreasing interval is x > 120.


4. Finally, the average rate of change between 3 and 5 is -30. You can find this by determining the amount of change in f(x) and dividing it by the amount of change in x. The basic formula is below.


\frac{new f(x) - old f(x)}{new x - old x}

\frac{60 - 120}{5 - 3}

\frac{-60}{2}

-30
