Johan found that the equation –2|8 – x| – 6 = –12 had two possible solutions: x = 5 and x = –11. Which explains whether his solu

tions are correct?
He is correct because both solutions satisfy the equation.
He is not correct because he made a sign error.
He is not correct because there are no solutions.

Answer:

He is not correct because he made a sign error.

Step-by-step explanation:

-2 |8-x| - 6 = -12

-2 |8-x| = -12 + 6

-2 |8-x| = - 6

2 |8-x| = 6

|8-x| = 3

2 possible solutions:

8-x = 3 ----> x = 5

or

8-x = -3  ----> x = 11

Comparing the answer choices, we can see that Johan got the sign of x = 11 wrong.

Hence the correct answer is:

He is not correct because he made a sign error.

Ariel was told the x intercept and the y intercept of a line with a positive slope. Yet, it was impossible for Ariel to find the
alexdok [17]

A line has the following standard equation form:

y = m x + b

where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

 

So if Ariel cannot find the slope, then this would only mean that m = 0, there is no slope. And hence the line is either a straight vertical line or straight horizontal line.

 

Answer:

<span>There is no slope</span>

Nina is bouncing on the trampoline her fourth bounce is 6 feet high each bounce afterwards it's 2/3 as high as the bounce before
Helen [10]
Okay. So Nina's fourth bounce is 6 feet high. The following bounces will be 2/3 as high as the previous. That is also similar to exponential decay. 6 is 2 away from 4. For this, we will raise 2/3 to the 2nd power. We can basically just multiply it together. 2/3 * 2/3 is 4/9. Now, we multiply that fraction by 6. 6 is 6/1 as a fraction. 6/1 * 4/9 is 24/9 or 2 2/3 in simplest form. There. Nina's sixth bounce will be 2 2/3 feet high.
