Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let g and b represent the numbers of candy canes the girl and boy have, respectively.
g -1 = b +1 . . . . . . girl gives to boy, they're equal
g +1 = 2(b -1) . . . . boy gives to girl; she has double
Adding 1 to the first equation gives an expression for g that can be substituted into the second equation.
g = b +2
(b +2) +1 = 2b -2
5 = b . . . . . . . . . . add 2-b, simplify
g = 5+2 = 7 . . . . . find g
The girl has 7 candy canes; the boy has 5.

Answer:
<h2>x=-2 or x=8</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate by the x from one side of the equation.
|x-3|=5
x-3=-5 and x-3=5
1. x-3=-5
Add 3 from both sides.
x-3+3=-5+3
Solve.
-5+3=(-2)
x=-2
2. x-3=5
Add 3 from both sides.
x-3+3=5+3
Solve.
5+3=8
x=8
Therefore, the correct answer is x=-2 or x=8.
Answer:
x if -3is less than x is less than -1
5 is -1 is less than x is less than 1
Step-by-step explanation:
You find the slope of the line for the first piece when the x-values range from -3 to -1.
For the second piece, the line is y=5 because the line is horizontal.
