we have

  -2\left|5x-7\right|+9=-7

Isolate the absolute value

-2\left|5x-7\right|+9=-7\\-2\left|5x-7\right|=-7-9\\ \left|5x-7\right|=8

First solution

when

+(5x-7)=8\\5x=8+7\\5x=15\\x=3

Second solution

when

-(5x-7)=8\\-5x+7=8\\-5x=8-7\\ -5x=1\\x=-1/5

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

the solutions are

x=3\\x=-\frac{1}{5}

To calculate the answers for an expression with an absolute value term. First, we isolate the one with the absolute value. 

<span>−2∣5w−7∣+9=−7
</span><span>−2∣5w−7∣=−7-9 = -16
</span>∣5w−7∣=8

<span>Then, set the quantity inside the absolute value notation equal to + and - the quantity on the other side of the equation.
</span>
5w=8+7
5w = 8-7

The answers are:

w = 3
w = 1/5

Provide an Example of how to draw transformed figures that are translated, reflected, and rotated.
solniwko [45]

Step-by-step explanation:

Translations: When a figure is slid to another place on the coordinate grid (for example if i asked you to move the figure 2 units down and 4 units to the left)

Reflected: When a figure is reflected across the y-axis or the x-axis and both figures are congruent to each other.

Rotated: When a figure is rotated (for example if i asked you to rotate the figure 90 degrees)

How do you know if it is a adding or subtraction problem when you combine like terms?
Snowcat [4.5K]
You look at the sign behind the second term. Here are some examples...

2x + 8 - 4x 
You are going to subtract 2x - 4x because there is a negative sign behind the 4x.

8y + 1 + y
You are going to add 8y + y because there is a positive sign behind the y.

4 + 2x - 5 + 7x
You are going to subtract 4 - 5 because there is a negative sign behind the 5.
You are going to add 2x + 7x because there is a positive sign behind the 7x.
