Ben's favorite deli says the average serving time is 12 minutes. Ben notices that the wait time at the deli varies at different

times of day, before and after noon. His observations when the wait time is as advertised can be represented by the equation 2|x − 2| − 12 = 0. Solve for the times when the serving time is as advertised, relative to noon.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Ben's observations when the wait time is as advertised represented by the equation 2|x − 2| − 12 = 0, to get the times when the serving time is as advertised, relative to noon, we will calculate for the value of x in the equation;

Note that the modulus of the function |x-2| will return both positive and negative value.

For the positive value of |x-2|;

2|x − 2| − 12 = 0

2(x − 2) − 12 = 0

open the parenthesis

2x-4 - 12 = 0

2x - 16 = 0

add 16 to both sides

2x-16+16 = 0+16

2x = 16

x = 16/2

x = 8

For the negative value of |x-2|;

2|x − 2| − 12 = 0

-2(x − 2) − 12 = 0

open the parenthesis

-2x+4 - 12 = 0

-2x - 8 = 0

add 8 to both sides

-2x-8+8 = 0+8

-2x = 8

x = -8/2

x = -4

<em>Hence the times when the serving time is as advertised, relative to noon are 8minutes and 4minutes </em>

Guys help me please ,how to solve it? i need a solution
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

well, x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

here,

EB Is parallel to DC , so

Angle AEB = Angle ADE

( because they are corresponding angle pair )

Angle ABE = Angle ACD

( because they are corresponding angle pair )

triangle ADC Is similar to triangle AEB

(By AA similarity criteria )

hence AE / ED = AB / BC ( by CPCT )

so 24/10 = 12/x

=》 24/12= 10/x

=》 x = 5

okay i hope u got it

A right circular cone of radius 6 inches, side length of 16 inches and height of h inches. Which is closest to the height of a c
Elis [28]

Answer:

Height of cone (h) = 14.8 in (Approx)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Radius of cone (r) = 6 in

Slant height (l) = 16 in

Find:

Height of cone (h) = ?

Computation:

Height of cone (h) = √ l² - r²

Height of cone (h) = √ 16² - 6²

Height of cone (h) = √ 256 - 36

Height of cone (h) = √220

Height of cone (h) = 14.832

Height of cone (h) = 14.8 in (Approx)
