2. x = 8, -4
|x-2|
2 * x-2=12
2x-4=12
2x=16
x=8
-4 - 2 = -6
-6 x 2 = 12
Number of points Jill scored in the first 4 games = 4 * 4 = 16
number of points Jill scored in the first 4 games = 6 * 9 = 54
total points Jill scored in 10 games 16 + 54 = 70
the average number of points after 10 games = 70 / 10 = 7 points
65 yards 2 feet = ?
1 yard = 3 feet
65(3)+2= 195+2 = 197
it is 197 feet
Note the equal sign. What you do to one side, you do to the other.
Do the opposite of PEMDAS. First, add 33 to both sides
4x - 33 (+33) = 7 (+33)
4x = 40
Next, divide by 4
4x/4 = 40/4
x = 40/4
x = 10
10 is your answer
hope this helps
