Answer: B. |x-100| = 25
Explanation:
Draw out a number line. Mark 75, 100 and 125 on the number line as points A, B, and C in that order. Don't worry about the spacing.
The value of x represents where the train is. So if we had say x = 85, then it would be at location 85 on the number line. Writing |x-100| is the distance from x to 100. The absolute value ensures the distance is never negative. We want this distance to be 25 because after traveling 25 cm, the switch is turned, and the train goes the other way.
12+6x was subtracted from the left but only 12 was subtracted from the right.
6x and 6 are not equal unless x=1
X=-11/15
I can help with the formula just do the math on a calculator you multiply length x width x height
You convert 3/4 into 8ths and that would be 6/8. so you do 1/8+5/8=6/8 so 5/8 is your answers.
