So first, you get the absolute value to one side:
|5x|+5=45\\
|5x|=40

Next, set up two equations; One where the value inside the absolute value lines is positive, and another where it is negative, and solve both for the variable:
|5x|=40\\5x=40\\x=\frac{40}{5}=8\\\\-5x=40\\x=\frac{40}{-5}=-8

Your answers are 8 and -8, or +-8.

Sara Blake's grandmother gave her $3000.00 to save for college. She put it in a savings account that earns 6% interest per year.
Elina [12.6K]

• P is the principal amount, $3000.00.

• r is the interest rate, 6% per year, or in decimal form, 6/100=0.06.

• t is the time involved, 8 years time periods.

• So, t is 8 year time periods.

To find the simple interest, we multiply 3000 × 0.06 × 8 to get that:

The interest is: $1440.00
