[|(x-4)÷(x+5)|]\leq[4]

Mathematics
1 answer:
Katena32 [7]3 years ago
3 0

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

Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through the given points and is (a) parallel to the given lin
murzikaleks [220]
Remark
This is costing you an awful lot of points, but it is a little hard to read. If I'm not interpreting it correctly, leave some sort of note below my answer.

Question One
In the first question you want a line that is parallel to x = 4 and goes through the point (-7,3). If I'm reading this correctly then the line you want is x = -7. You only need the x value of the given point. I'll put a graph there to show you what it looks like on a grid.  The graph is the left one for this question.

Question Two
Here I think you want the line going through (5,-1) and perpendicular to y = 4x - 7. I will make a graph for that one as well.

Begin with the slope
Two lines are perpendicular to each other if their slopes multiply to - 1
Given slope (m1) = 4
perpendicular slope = m2

Formula
m1 * m2 = - 1
4 * m2 = -1      Divide by 4
m2 = -1/4

So far what you have is
y = (-1/4)x + b

Now use the given point to solve for b
x = 5
y = - 1
b = ??

-1 = (-1/4)*5 + b
-1 = -5/4 + b  Add 5/4 to both sides
-1 + 5/4 + b   Make -1 into -4/4
b = -4/4 + 5/4
b = (-4 + 5)/4
b = 1/4

So the line that you want is
y = (-1/4) x + 1/4

Answers
One:  x = - 7
Two: y = (-1/4)x + 1/4

Note
The right graph is of y = 4x - 7 and y = (-1/4)x + 1/4

Write a linear equation that passes through the point (2,-9) and has a slope of -5
Anna [14]

Answer:

  • y = -5x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • The slope m = -5 and point (2, -9)

<u>Use point slope form:</u>

  • y - y₁ = m(x - x₁), where (x₁, y₁) is the given point

<u>So the equation is:</u>

  • y - (-9) = -5(x - 2)
  • y + 9 = -5x + 10
  • y = -5x + 1

In the past year Jenny watched 44 movies that she thought were very good. She watched 55 movies over the whole year. Of the movi
igomit [66]

To solve this problem, we must divide the number of movies that Jenny thought were very good by the total number of movies she watched. This is because we are finding a percentage, which represents a part out of a whole that have a factor, which in this case is very good movies. First, we begin by dividing 44/55. Then, we realize that both the numerator and the denominator are divisible by 11, so if we divided them both by 11 that would simplify the fraction.

44/55 = 44/11 / 55/11 = 4/5

Next, we can now easily divide our simplified fraction.

4/5 = 0.8

Finally, we must multiply by 100, because a percentage is a portion of 100 (the total is 100%). This is equivalent to moving the decimal point two places to the right.

0.8 * 100 = 80%

Therefore, Jenny thinks that 80% of the movies she watched this year were very good.

Hope this helps!
