Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Once again, we have a problem with the |x| in it, so like last time, every number that is the outcome within those brackets, is positive.
Let us check:
A. x = 21 over 4 and x = -11 over 4
This one is a very simple to say no to, as we are talking about decimals (if you convert into decimals at this point), as in -16 there are no decimals.
False.
B. x = -1 and x = 9
-1 is correct. But 9 is not. Why? Here:
9 + 5 is 14
14 the multiplied by -4 does not equal -16
False.
C. x = -1 and x = -9
Like what I said before, -1 is correct, now in this answer, -9 is also correct.
Unlike the last one, this one is -9 + 5 which is -4, then since it is inside the positive brackets, the number 4 becomes positive.
4 * -4 = -16
True.
The last one is incorrect. You know why
