ANSWER

EXPLANATION

We want to simplify:

$|x + 3|$

when x=2.

We substitute x=2 into the absolute value expression to obtain:

$|2 + 3| = |5|$

The about value of 5 means what is the distance of 5 from zero on the real number line.

$|2 + 3| = |5| = 5$

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Actually, |x+3| is in simplest form.

However, this can be written as a 2-part function:

x + 3 for x > -3

-(x + 3) for x < -3.

If x = 2, then |x+3| equals |2+3| = 5

Ryan $65 for n books. Write an expression that can be used to find the cost of one book.

eimsori [14]

Answer:

x=65/n where x is 1 book and n the number of books

Step-by-step explanation:

If n is the number of books, lets say 1 book is "x", then

nx=65

x=65/n

for example

n=1 then x=65

n=2 then x=65/2

n=3 then x=65/3

a week before election day, 276 out of 450 people said they would vote for the republican candidate. if 15,240 registered voters

Ann [662]

Answer:

(a) $\frac {276}{450}=\frac {y}{15240}$

(b) We cross multiply the probability by the total voters

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

Probability of getting a republican voter is

$\frac {276}{450}=\frac {138}{225}=\frac {46}{75}$

$\frac {276}{450}=\frac {138}{225}=\frac {46}{75}=\frac {y}{15240}$

These are found by dividing the first numerator and denominator by 2, then by 3

To make it complete, the situation is therefore defined as $\frac {276}{450}=\frac {y}{15240}$ where y is unknown value

(b)

Cross multiplication of the probability and number of voters gives the actual figure of y in the equation formed in part a of the question.

(c)

Since we have 15240 voters who plan to participate in election, we cross multiply to get the approximate number of republican voters which yields

$\frac {46}{75}\times 15240=9347.2\approx 9347$
