Answer: x = -8 or x = 2

Step-by-step explanation: Follow your rule for solving absolute value equations. Since the absolute value is isolated on one side of the equation, we can split the problem up into two separate equations.

The first equation will be identical to the original except it won't have the absolute value signs which are the vertical bars.

In this case, that equation is x + 5 = -3.

The second equation will look like the first, only the right side will be changed to a positive. So in this case, that equation is x + 5 = 3.

Now simply solve each equation to get x = -8 or x = -2.

You can check both of these answers by plugging them back in for <em>x</em> in the original problem and you will see that they both work.

(A) How many ways can a 2-person subcommittee be selected from a committee of 8 people?
Otrada [13]

Answer:

28, 56

56

Step-by-step explanation:

a

To solve this, we use the combination rule.

nCk = n!/k!(n-k)! where

n is the number of options (8) k is the number of slots (2).

Assuming the order doesn't matter, then

8C2 = 8! / 2!(8-2)!

8C2 = 8! / 2! 6!

8C2 = 40320 / 2 * 720

8C2 = 40320 / 1440

8C2 = 28

If the order does matter, then we use permutation instead.

nPk = n!/(n-k!) where n = 8 and k =2 8P2 = 8! / 6!

8P2 = 40320 / 720

8P2 = 56

b

We are told that there exist 8 ways to choose a president and a vice president. This means that, after choosing a president from 8 people, there remains 7 people to choose his vice from. Thus, the number of ways to choose a president and his vice are 8 * 7 = 56

A company made 4 million in the second quarter this is 1/3 more then it made in the first quarter and 4/5 of what it made in the
Ratling [72]
In this problem, you have to find the total profit the company made in the three quarters which makes up 3/4 of the whole. In the second quarter, the profit is 4 million. Let x be the profit in the first quarter. Following the description,

4 = (1+1/3)x
x = 3 million

Thus, the second quarter made 5.33 million profit.

For the third quarter, let's assign it to the y variable. Following the description,

4 = (4/5)(y)
y = 5 million

Thus, the total profit is 4 + 3 + 5 = 12 million
