Answer:
The number y decreased by 12.
Step-by-step explanation:
15x-10=20
+10 +10
15x=30
\15 /15
x=2
you add 10 to both -10 (they cancek eachother out) and 20 (equals 30)
Then you divide 30 by 15 (equals 2) and 15 by 15 (they cancel eachother out)
Then you get x=2
Since there is nothing on the left side of the equation besides the absolute value, you have to take 6m out of the absolute value and create 2 separate equations. These 2 equation will be 6m = 42 and 6m = -42.
You solve the equations normally:
6m = 42 6m = -42 (inverse to get m by itself, do on both sides)
/6 /6 /6 /6
m = 7 m = -7
The answer is a solution set:
[7, -7]
