Answer: No solutions

==========================================

Explanation:

Start things off by subtracting 5 from both sides

|x-1|+5 = 2

|x-1|+5-5 = 2-5

|x-1| = -3

We cannot go any further after this point. The result of any absolute value is never negative. The absolute value represents distance from some number to 0. For example, saying |-7| = 7 means -7 is seven units away from 0 on a number line. Negative distance does not make sense.

So going back to |x-1| = -3 makes no sense as well. There are no numbers we can plug in for x to have |x-1| = -3 be true.

The equation |x-1| = -3 has no solutions, so the original equation doesn't have any solutions either.

Answer:

See below;

Step-by-step explanation:

21 . Consider an exponential function;

$Exponential Function in Form - y = a * b^x, where, a - start value, b - growth factor, x - time,\\\\Now y = f ( x ), in Other Words,\\p ( t ) = 300 * ( 0.5 )^t - Given,\\\\Through Substitution - f ( x ) = p ( t ), a = 300, b = 0.5, x = t,\\\\Conclusion ; 300 - ( start value ) - Starting Amount of Milligrams of Compound,\\0.5 - Milligrams Compound Decreases by$

Does anyone know this? Will mark brainliest !!!!

Answer:

x=4

y=4√5

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up 3 right triangles and mark their respective angles. The largest will have sides (in typical a,b,c[hypotenuse] order) y, z, and 10. The middle 8, x, and y. The smallest x, 2, and z.

Then since they are all similar triangles, using the midde and smaller triangles, set up the proportionin which both A sides when divided are equal to the B sides.

So 8/x = x/2

Cross multiply and get 16=x^2.

The square root of 16 is 4, so x is 4.

Then using the larger and middle triangles, do the same for the A and C sides.

So y/8 = 10/y.

Cross multiply and get 80=y^2.

Find the square root of it, which since it doesn't have a perfect square, you use a calculator or the whatever theorem and get √4*4*5 or simply 4√5.

So x = 4 and y = 4√5
