Answer:

The | signs are absolute value signs. Absolute value just makes a negative value turn positive, because technically there is no negative value. For example |-x+5| turns into x+5. If it's already positive, it stays the same. So basically, they're just acting as parenthesis right now. Just distribute the 3 and get 3x+15=7. subtract 17 and get 3x=-8. Divide both sides by three, and you should get x= -8/3. But wait, there's more. Since this is an absolute value equation, there should be more than one answer. Simply make the number on the other side negative. 3x+15=-7. subtract 15 and get -22. Keep going and your answer should be -22/3.

So in conclusion, your two answers are -8/3 and -22/3.

Describe how to transform (^6 sqrt x^5)^7 into an expression with a rational exponent.

solniwko [45]

$\bf a^{\frac{{ n}}{{ m}}} \implies \sqrt[{ m}]{a^{ n}} \qquad \qquad
\sqrt[{ m}]{a^{ n}}\implies a^{\frac{{ n}}{{ m}}}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\left(\sqrt[6]{x^5}\right)^7\implies \left( x^{\frac{5}{6}} \right)^7\implies x^{\frac{5}{6}\cdot 7} \implies x^{\frac{5\cdot 7}{6}}\implies x^{\frac{35}{6}}$

Find the values of x and y. <br> x + 7i = y − yi

lys-0071 [83]

Answer: X = y - yi - 7i

Y = (x + 7i)/(1 - i)

Step-by-step explanation: for the case of (X) you only need to pass the 7i to the other side with the subtraction sign (-7i), then we get this equation:

x + 7i = y − yi

X = y - yi - 7i

in the case of the (Y), first we select the common multiple.

y - yi = y(1 - i)

if we replace it in the original expression, we get the following equation:

x + 7i = y(1 - i)

after that you can pass the value (1 - i) to the other side dividing,

Y = (x + 7i)/(1 - i)
