3|x+5|=7 Please answer as soon as possible

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.

Express x^2+4x-7 in the form (x+a)^2-b where a and b are integers
lukranit [14]

Answer:

(x + 2)^2 - 11.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x^2 + 4x - 7

Now x^2 + 4x = (x + 2)^2 - 4 so we have:

f(x) = (x + 2)^2 - 4 - 7

f(x) = (x + 2)^2 - 11.

Given: a||b, m∠ 6=128° Find: m∠1, m∠3
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

m∠1 = 52°

m∠3 = 52°

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Since b is a straight line and is transversed by line m and we are given m∠6 = 128°, we can find m∠5, which is 180 - m∠6, giving us 52° for ∠5.

Step 2:

Because a and b are parallel, m∠5 and the m∠1 are the same, so we have m∠1 = 52° as one of our answers needed

Step 3: Because ∠3 is vertical to ∠1, we can use the vertical angles theory and say that m∠1 is equal to m∠3. Therefore, m∠3 = 52°
