Answer:
The two solutions are 5 and 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of the absolute has two solutions because IxI = a means x = a and x = -a
Let us solve the question using this fact
∵ I2x - 8I + 3 = 5
→ Subtract 3 from both sides
∴ I2x - 8I + 3 - 5 = 5 - 3
∴ I2x - 8I = 2
By using the fact above
→ 1st solution
∵ 2x - 8 = 2
→ Add 8 to both sides
∴ 2x - 8 + 8 = 2 + 8
∴ 2x = 10
→ Divide both sides by 2 to find x
∴ x = 5
→ 2nd solution
∵ 2x - 8 = -2
→ Add 8 to both sides
∴ 2x - 8 + 8 = -2 + 8
∴ 2x = 6
→ Divide both sides by 2 to find x
∴ x = 3
∴ The two solutions are 5 and 3
Step-by-step explanation:
A quadratic graph will surely help you find the solutions
X2-x-2=0
x1=2 x2= -1
Substitute each of the x value in the original equation to get the y value
(2)^2-(2)-2= 0 (2,0)
(-1)^2-(-1)-2=-2 (-1,-2)
plot the coordinates on the graph,the graph should be a curve
Answer:7feet
Step-by-step explanation:
perimeter(p)=54ft
Width(w) +13=Length(L)
Perimeter=2xLength+2xwidth
P=2xL+2xw
L=w+13
54=2(w+13)+2w
54=2w+26+2w
Collect like terms
54-26=2w+2w
28=4w
Divide both sides by 4
28/4=4w/4
7=w
Width =7feet
19.8 I think and I'm pretty sure I have it right
