Answer:
Solutions are;
x = -8
x = -3.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to solve the given equation for x
|(x-4)/(x + 5)| = 4
From what we have, this is an absolute value equation and thus, we are going to have two solutions
These are;
x-4/x+ 5 = 4
x-4 = 4(x + 5)
x-4 = 4x + 20
x-4x = 20 + 4
-3x = 24
x = -24/3
x = -8
secondly;
x-4/x+5 = -4
x-4 = -4(x + 5)
x-4 = -4x - 20
x + 4x = -20 + 4
5x = -16
x = -16/5
x = -3.2
Answer:
$5.46
Step-by-step explanation:
Find out how much she had to pay by multiplying the amount she got by the cost and adding the two totals together.
4*2.49=9.96
2*2.29=4.58
4.58+9.96=14.54
Subtract to find change
20-14.54=5.46
Answer:
2,000
Step-by-step explanation:
The computation of the price that should be sold for making 25% profit is shown below:
Let cost price be x
Now the equation would be
(1,920 - x) ÷ x × 100 = (x - 1,280) ÷ x × 100
1,920 - x = x - 1,280
2x = 3,200
x = 1,600
Now the sale price would be
= 1,600 × 1.25
= 2,000
First error is that the legs are a and b so a should be x and b is 6 and c is 10 the second error is at the end they did not take the square root to get x by itself the real answer should be
X^2 +6^2=10^2
X^2+36=100
X^2 =64
X=8
