Which represents the solution to the absolute value equation? 3|2x+4|-1=11

Mathematics

The first step for absolute value equations is to isolate the expression contained within the absolute value bars:

3|2x+4|-1 = 11
3|2x+4| = 12
|2x+4| = 4

so |2x+4| is 4 units away from 0 on a number line, but we don't know in which direction -- negative or positive? you'll have two answers.

2x+4 = 4

AND

2x+4 = -4

solve both of those two step equations and you'll get

x = 0

AND

x = -4

so 0 and -4 are your solutions.

-x/2 + 4 > = 6
-x/2 > = 6 - 4
-x/2 > = 2...multiply both sides by -2
x < = -4
_________________________________________
x + 3/2 < 7/4
x < 7/4 - 3/2
x < 7/4 - 6/4
x < 1/4

The sum of 0.8 and 0.04 can be written as a fraction where the numerator and the denominator are both positive integers. When th
Luda [366]

Answer: 0.84 as a fraction is 84/100

Greatest common factor is 4

Resulting fraction is 21/25

Addition of numerator and denominator of the resulting fraction is 46

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, the sum of 0.8 and 0.04 is written as 0.8 + 0.04 = 0.84

Convert 0.84 to fraction = 84/100

The numerator and denominator in 84/100 are both positive integers.

The greatest common factor to the numerator and denominator is 4

Divide 84 by 4 = 21

Divide 100 by 4 = 25

Therefore, the resulting fraction is 21/25

Addition of 21 and 25 equals 46.

I hope this helps.

The population at Bishop High School is 2000 students in 2011. Every year the population decreases by 50 students
Artemon [7]

Answer:

  • Let p be the population at t be the number of years since 2011.  Then, p=2000-50t
  • The projected population of the high school in 2015=1800
  • In <u>2019</u> the population be 1600 students

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The population at Bishop High School students in 2011 =2000

Also,  Every year the population decreases by 50 students which implies the rate of decrease in population is constant.

So, the function is a linear function.

Let p be the population at t be the number of years since 2011.

Then, p=2000-50t

So at t=0, p=2000

In year 2015, t=4, substitute t=4 in the above equation ,we get

p=2000-50(4)\\\Rightarrow\ p=2000-200\\\Rightarrow\ p=1800

Hence, the projected population of the high school in 2015=1800

Now, put p=1600 in the function , we get

1600=2000-50t\\\Rightarrow50t=2000-1600\\\Rightarrow50t=400\\\Rightarrow\ t=\frac{400}{50}\\\Rightarrow\ t=8

Now, 2011+8=2019

Hence, in <u>2019</u> the population be 1600 students

Which quadratic equation has the roots -1+4i and -1-4i
AysviL [449]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the quadratic in answer choice C using the quadratic formula:

x=\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}.

Here a=1, b=2, and c=17.

Substitute and you'll have:

x=\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a} =\frac{-2+/-\sqrt{(-2)^2-4(1)(17)} }{2(1)}=\frac{-2+/-\sqrt{4-68}}{2)}

\frac{-2+/-\sqrt{-64} }{2}=\frac{-2+/-8i }{2}=-1+/- 4i
