By definition of absolute value we have two equalities:
2x + 1 = 10
2x + 1 = -10
For 2x + 1 = 10:
2x + 1 = 10
2x = 10-1
2x = 9
x = 9/2
For 2x + 1 = -10:
2x + 1 = -10
2x = -10-1
2x = -11
x = -11 / 2
Answer:
{-11/2, 9/2}
Step 1: Multiply 15 by 3, which equals 45.
Step 2: Multiply 45 by 2, which gives you 90.
Step 3: Add everything up. 15 + 90 + 45 is 150
Step 4: Find the percent of 15 people in a group of 150 people by diving 150 by 15.
150 / 15 = 10.
FINAL ANSWER: 10%
