When solving an equation with an absolute value term, you make two separate equations ans solve for x:

Equation 1: |4x-3|-5 = 4

1st add 5 to both sides:

|4x-3| = 9

Remove the absolute value term and make two equations:

4x-3 = 9 and 4x - 3 = -9

Solving for x you get X = 3 and x = -1.5

When you replace x with those values in the original equation the statement is true so those are two solutions.

Do the same thing for equation 2:

|2x+3| +8 = 3

Subtract 8 from both sides:

|2x+3| = -5

Remove the absolute value term and make two equations:

2x +3 = -5

2x+3 = 5

Solving for x you get -1 and 4, but when you replace x in the original equation with those values, the statement is false, so there are no solutions.

The answer is:

C. The solutions to equation 1 are x = 3, −1.5, and equation 2 has no solution.

The the length of a rectangle is 9 centimeters less than four timesfour times its width. its area is 28 square centimeters. find
wel

Let w = width

then

5w-3 = length

w(5w-3) = 14

5w^2-3w = 14

5w^2-3w-14=0

(5w+7)(w-2) = 0

w = {-7/5, 2}

throw out the negative solution leaving

w = 2 centimeters

length:

5w-3 =5(2)-3 =10-3 = 7 centimeters

Answer:

6a + (6 x 3) = 60

or

6a + 18 = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

You have 6 students who are assigned an unknown amount of problems. We can write it as 6x. Then each is given 3 more problems, so now we have 6x + (6 x 3). We also know that in all they have 60 problems.

Therefore, the equation is:

6x + 18 = 60

Then just solve

6x + 18 = 60

     - 18   -18

6x = 42

x = 7
