How can you represent constraints by absolute value equations?

Mathematics

Gala2k [10]4 years ago

Answer:

The absolute number of a number a is written as

|a|

And represents the distance between a and 0 on a number line.

An absolute value equation is an equation that contains an absolute value expression. The equation

|x|=a

Has two solutions x = a and x = -a because both numbers are at the distance a from 0.

To solve an absolute value equation as

|x+7|=14

You begin by making it into two separate equations and then solving them separately.

x+7=14

x+7−7=14−7

x=7

or

x+7=−14

x+7−7=−14−7

x=−21

An absolute value equation has no solution if the absolute value expression equals a negative number since an absolute value can never be negative.

The inequality

|x|<2

Represents the distance between x and 0 that is less than 2

Whereas the inequality

|x|>2

Represents the distance between x and 0 that is greater than 2

picture43

You can write an absolute value inequality as a compound inequality.

$$\left | x \right |<2\: or

−2<x<2

This holds true for all absolute value inequalities.

|ax+b|<c,wherec>0

=−c<ax+b<c

|ax+b|>c,wherec>0

=ax+b<−corax+b>c

You can replace > above with ≥ and < with ≤.

When solving an absolute value inequality it's necessary to first isolate the absolute value expression on one side of the inequality before solving the inequality.

Cynthia Besch wants to buy a rug for a room that is 1919 ft wide and 2727 ft long. She wants to leave a uniform strip of floor a
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

The dimension of the rug would be 17 ft × 9 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

length of the room = 27 ft.

width of the room = 19 ft.

suppose, she leaves a uniform strip of x ft. around the rug.

So,

The length of rug = (27-2x)ft.

Width of rug= (19-2x)ft.

∴ Area of the rug= length×width

                            =  (27-2x)(19-2x)

                            =  513-54x-38x+4x^2

                            =   513-92x+4x^2

According to the question,

513-92x+4x^2=153

513-92x+4x^2-153=0        ( subtract 153 both sides)

4x^2-92x+360=0

4(x^2-23x+90)=0

x^2-23x+90=0

x^2-(18+5)x+90=0            ( Middle term splitting)

x^2-18x-5x+90=0

x(x-18)-5(x-18)=0

(x-5)(x-18)=0

x-5=0 or x-18=0             ( zero product property)

x=5 or x=18

if x=18, dimension would be negative  ( Not possible)

Thus, x= 5

Hence,

length of rug= 27-10=17 ft.

width of rug= 19-10=9 ft.
