First, disregard the sign for absolute value and solve for x.
2x - 1 = 3x + 5
2x - 3x = 5 + 1
-x = 6
x = -6
Now, you have to interpret the absolute value. The absolute value of x is always the positive version of whatever the number is. Since x = -6, its absolute value is 6. Therefore, the possible value for x is only one, which is 6.
Sure with what? what subject?
First you have to get rid of the mixed numbers, so multiply the whole numbers with the denominators and add the numerators so that way you get:
14/3 times 45/4....then cross simplify if possible and finally you can multiply the numerators and the denominators...
7/1 times 15/2 = 105/2....simplify it and get: 52 1/2
3,345 divided by 18 is 185.8333....The three goes on forever.
Steps:
Does 18 go into 3? No
Does 18 go into 33? Yes
How many times? 1
33-18= 15, and then you would bring down and keep doing what I did. Hope this helped!
