∣2x+7∣ for x=-4
Use the substitution method
∣2*-4+7∣
Mutiply first then add +7
∣2*-4∣= -8
∣-8+7∣= -1
Whenever there is a negative number for absolute value , the number becomes a + positive number.
∣-1∣= 1
Answer:
1
Ok. so lets call the cost of each soda x. now, 3 packs of soda is 10 less than five packs of soda. so the price of 3 packs of soda is 3x, the price of five packs is 5x. now, it says that 3 packs is 10 less than five packs. that means that 3x=5x-10.
now, to find the price of a pack of soda, we have to isolate x.
add 10 to both sides to get 3x+10=5x. now, we subtact 3x on both sides to get 10=2x. divide by 2 on both sides, x=5. a pack of soda is 5 dollars
0.05 * 10 =0.5
If you want an equivalent expression as division simply divide both sides by either 0.05 or 10 and it'll be dividing:
10 = 0.5/0.05 OR 0.05 = 0.5/10
And soon it'll avenue golden retriever to play with.
God, i feel so stupid writing that :(
