Answer:
x = - 
, x = 
Step-by-step explanation:
The absolute value function always gives a positive value, however, the expression inside can be positive or negative, that is
- 3x + 16 = 18 or -(- 3x + 16) = 18
Solving
- 3x + 16 = 18 ( subtract 16 from both sides )
- 3x = 2 ( divide both sides by - 3 )
x = -
or
-(- 3x + 16) = 18
3x - 16 = 18 ( add 16 to both sides )
3x = 34 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = 
As a check
Substitute these values into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side then they are the solutions.
| - 3(- ) + 16 | = | 2 + 16 | = | 18 | = 18 ← True
| - 3( ) + 16 | = | - 34 + 16 | = | - 18 | = 18 ← True
Thus x = - and x = are the solutions
The area of your game board is = 126 * 90 = 11340 cm^2;
A small suares has x^2 his area; where x measure his length;
Prime factorization
11340 | 2
5670 | 2
2835 | 5
567 | 3
189 | 3
63 | 3
21 | 3
7 | 7
1
11340 = 2^2 * 3^4 * 5 * 7 = 2^2 * ( 3^2 ) ^ 2 * 5 * 7 = 18^2 * 5 * 7
We observ that the possible length of the side is 18( we have 35 small squares ).
6 x 9 = 54
He has a total of 54 pages to grade.
54 - 12 = 42 pages
He still has to grade 42 pages.
