8 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First simplify the first expression.

Distribute.

1/4(8y-12) = 1/4 * 8y + 1/4 * -12

8y * 1/4 = 8y / 4 = 2y

-12 * 1/4 = -12 / 4 = -3

1/4(8y-12) = 2y - 3

2y - 12 != 2y - 3

So it is not equivalent.

$x2$

So, Graph of Image 1 is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the graph of the solution o the equation $|x|+3>5$

Solving:

$|x|+3>5$

Adding -3 on both sides

$|x|+3-3>5-3$

$|x|>2$

Applying absolute rule: if |u|>a then u>a or u<-a

$x2$

So, all values greater than 2 and less than -2 are included.

So, Graph of Image 1 is correct.
