The answer would be 0 solutions.
Here, we see <em>|</em><em />x+6<em>|</em><em /> = 2.
Oh wow! A foreign object!
|x+6|... two lines... what is that?
That is called absolute value. Whatever is inside the two lines, must have a positive answer!
Let's pretend we have a machine that has this absolute value function activated.
What we put in, we must get a positive answer out.
Let's put in -6.
-6 ==> BEEP BEEP ==> 6
Let's try 3.
3 ==> BEEP BEEP ==>3
Whatever we put in, if it is negative or positive, what comes out is always positive.
So, for how many values <em>x</em> is |x+6|=-2 true?
None, because the answer <em>must</em><em /> be positive!
-2 is not positive, <em>2</em><em /> is.
x^2 = 81/100
Let's take the square root of each side
x = 0.9 and -0.9
Answer:
I think answer is 3
Step-by-step explanation:
BD = DA
BE = EC
Now, BD/BE = DA/EC
or, x + 5/2x = 4/3
or, 3x + 15 = 8x
or, 15 = 8x - 3x
or, 15 = 5x
or, 15/5 = x
or, 3 = x
Therefore x = 3 <u>Ans</u>
Its kind of like how it is on a car to tell how fast your going i hoped this helped!
