Answer:
Q1
|a-b| = b-a when a<b
Q2
104159/33000
Step-by-step explanation:
Q1
If a<b then a-b will always be negative. To get the absolute value, we can take -(a-b) = -a+b = b-a.
Q2
Let x = 3.12789789789...
We isolate the repeating decimal to start after the decimal, so we multiply by 100.
100x = 312.789789789...
We want to multiply by 10 for each digit that repeats (in this case 3), to get the repeating part to the left of the decimal.
100000x = 312789.789789
Subtracting the two...
x(100000-100) = 312789.789789 - 312.789789
99900x = 312477
x = 312477/99000 = 104159/33000
The temperature decreased by 4 degrees.
Answer:
8y - 2x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Distribute;
8y + 8 - 2x - 6
Combine like terms;
8y - 2x + 2
Okay first you would ask yourself
What plus ten will give you fifteen?
And it would be five
Then multiply five by the three
And you’d get 15
So it would be
X=15
( 15/3 + 10 =15)

Answer:
- x = x+1
- 0 = x+1
- x+1 = x+1
Step-by-step explanation:
1. There will be no solution if the equation is a contradiction. Usually, it is something that can be reduced to 0 = 1.
If we choose to make our equation ...
x = x +1
Subtracting x from both sides of the equation gives ...
0 = 1
There is no value of the variable that will make this be true.
__
2. Something that reduces to x = c will have one solution. One such equation is ...
0 = x+1
x = -1 . . . . subtract 1 from both sides
__
3. Something that reduces to x = x will have an infinite number of solutions.
One such equation is ...
x+1 = x+1
Subtracting 1 from both sides gives ...
x = x . . . . true for all values of x
