<h2>Solving Equations with Absolute Expressions</h2><h3>
Answer:</h3>
<u>No Solutions</u>
<h3>
Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
Given:
Rewriting the given equation:
We have to realize that the right side of the equation, , will always be positive no matter what real values of (because we're taking the absolute value of the expression) and we are equating it to a <em>negative</em> constant number, . Something that is always positive will never be negative so there's no value for that satisfies the solution.

Answer:
-1.875
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Write the problem: -2(5x + 8) = 14 + 6x
2. Multiply -2 by 5 and 8 to get: -10x - 16 = 14 + 6x
3. Combine like terms: -16x - 16 = 14
4. Repeat step 3: -16x = 30
5. Divide -16 by 30 to get the answer which is -1.875.
Hope this helped!

Read my note at the end of problem 5 in another post.
You already know this table represents an exponential function
since each y-coordinate is always the previous y-coordinate multiplied by 6.
That means b = 6, and you have
y = a(6)^x
Now we find "a". When x = 0, y = 5. That means a = 5.
The equation is
y = 5(6)^x
