Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearrange this Absolute Value Equation

Absolute value equalitiy entered

|-2y+6| = 6

STEP

Clear the Absolute Value Bars

Clear the absolute-value bars by splitting the equation into its two cases, one for the Positive case and the other for the Negative case.

The Absolute Value term is |-2y+6|

For the Negative case we'll use -(-2y+6)

For the Positive case we'll use (-2y+6)

STEP

Solve the Negative Case

-(-2y+6) = 6

Multiply

2y-6 = 6

Rearrange and Add up

2y = 12

Divide both sides by 2

y = 6

STEP

Solve the Positive Case

(-2y+6) = 6

Rearrange and Add up

-2y = 0

Divide both sides by 2

-y = 0

Multiply both sides by (-1)

y = 0

Which is the solution for the Positive Case

STEP

Wrap up the solution

y=6

y=0

Two solutions were found :

y=0

y=6

Answer:

y = 6 or y = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

|-2y + 6| = 6

-2y + 6 = -6 -2y + 6 = 6

-2y = -12 -2y = 0

y = 6 y = 0

Best of Luck!

Find x when f(x)=1 . (These means find the input that gives an output of 1.)<br><br> f(x)=1/x-2

bogdanovich [222]

Given function is f(x) = $\frac{1}{x}-2$

Value of f(x) is the output value when we place the value of 'x' (input value) in the given function.

If the output value of f(x) = 1,

1 = $\frac{1}{x}-2$

1 + 2 = $\frac{1}{x}$

$\frac{1}{x}=3$

$x=\frac{1}{3}$

Therefore, for the input value x = $\frac{1}{3}$ , output value of the function is 1.

Point M is the midpoint of segment AB.<br> AM=3x+40 and MB=x^2. Find x and AB

Nina [5.8K]

$\text{Hello there! :)}$

$x = 8\\\\AB = 128 \text{ units}$

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

$\text{Since Point M is the midpoint of AB, then:}\\\\AM = MB\\\\$

$\text{Set the two equations equal to each other:}\\\\3x + 40 = x^{2} \\\\$

$\text{Move all terms over to one side to simplify more easily:}\\\\0 = x^{2} - 3x - 40$

$\text{Factor by finding numbers that sum up to -3 and multiply into -40:}\\\\0 = (x - 8)(x + 5)\\\\x = -5, 8$

$\text{The length of a segment cannot be negative, so choose the positive solution:}\\\\x = 8$

$\text{Substitute in this value of x into either AM or MB to solve for AB:}$

$AB = 2(MB)\\\\AB = 2(x^{2} )\\\\AB = 2(8^{2})\\ \\AB = 2(64)\\\\AB = 128 \text{ units}$
