Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

When evaluating absolute values, a great way to remember what they do is simple. No matter the number, whether it is negative or positive, the number(s) IN THE absolute values are ALWAYS positive.

So, |x + y| is then substituted with the numbers given for the variables.

|x + y|

|8 - 15|

|-7|

How do you factor this equation?<br> 7x²+5x-3
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a quadratic expression.  Use the quadratic formula to find the roots, and then once you have the roots, write the corresponding factors.

The coefficients of this quadratic expression are a = 7, b = 5 and c = -3

The discriminant is b^2 - 4ac, or 5^ - 4(7)(-3), or 25 + 84 = 109.  Because this is positive, we know that the expression has two unequal, real roots.

Using the quadratic formula, we now find these roots:

      -b ± √(discriminant)

x = --------------------------------   which here is:

                   2a

      -5 ± √109

x = -----------------

             14

The factors can be found from these two roots.  The first one is

      -5 - √109                  5 + √109

(x - ---------------- )  =  (x + ---------------- )

             14                              14

and the second is

        5 - √109              

(x + ---------------- )  

             14

7. In how many ways can the same 5-question True / False quiz be
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

243 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculating the number of posible outcomes:

We have n trials.

Each trial has m possible outcomes.

The total number of outcomes is:

T = m^{n}

In this question:

5 questions, that is, 5 trials, so n = 5

Each question has 3 options(True, false or unanswered). So m = 3

How many ways?

T = 3^{5} = 243
