Answer:

The solution for the absolute value equation is  x=-1\quad \mathrm{or}\quad \:x=2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided absolute value equation.  

|2x-1|=3

\mathrm{If}\:|u|\:=\:a,\:a>0\:\mathrm{then}\:u\:=\:a\:\quad \mathrm{or}\quad \:u\:=\:-a

By using the above rule.

2x-1=-3\quad \mathrm{or}\quad \:2x-1=3

2x=-3+1\quad \mathrm{or}\quad \:2x=3+1

2x=-2\quad \mathrm{or}\quad \:2x=4

x=-1\quad \mathrm{or}\quad \:x=2

Hence the combine solution is x=-1\quad \mathrm{or}\quad \:x=2

-2x^2 + 4x + 16 in vertex form​
Reil [10]

Answer:

y = - 2(x - 1)² + 18

Step-by-step explanation:

- 2x² + 4x + 16 ← factor out - 2 from the first 2 terms

= - 2(x² - 2x) + 16

using the method of completing the square

add/subtract ( half the coefficient of the x- term)² to x² - 2x

= - 2(x² + 2(- 1)x + 1 - 1) + 16

= - 2(x - 1)² + 2 + 16

= - 2(x - 1)² + 18 ← in vertex form

A gardener is planting two types of trees:
Bumek [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let y represent number of years...

9 ft tall = (12 * 9) = 108 inches

10 ft tall = (12 * 10) = 120 inches

Type A : 9 ft (or 108 inches) and grows 6 inches per year..

108 + 6y

Type B : 10 ft (or 120 inches) and grows 3 inches per yr

120 + 3y

how many years will it take them to be the same height...so when will they be equal....so set them equal and solve for y

108 + 6y = 120 + 3y

6y - 3y = 120 - 108

3y = 112

y = 112/3

y = 37 1/3 years....or 37 years and 4 months <====

check...

108 + 6(37 1/3) = 120 + 3(37 1/3)

108 + 6(112/3) = 120 + 3(112/3)

108 + 672/3 = 120 + 336/3

672/3 - 336/3 = 120 - 108

336/3 = 112

112 = 112 (correct)
