The solution to |x+8|=1 is  -7,-9

Explanation:

Given :

|x+8|=1

To Find:

The solution to |x+8|=1

Solution:

Now, we know the Properties of modulus function as  

|x|  = x          if x>0

|x|= -x           if x<0

Similarly property will be followed in the given question as

Case 1:  if x>-8  

Then the given equation will become as  

|x+8|= x+8=1

After solving the equation , we will get

x= -7

Similarly,  

Case2: if x<-8

Then the given equation will become as  

|x+8|= -(x+8)=1

After solving the equation , we will get  

x= -9

Hence,  the possible values of x are -7,-9

Answer:

-7 OR -9

Step-by-step explanation:

8-7 in the inside

Absolute value of 1 is 1

OR

8-9 in the inside for -1

Absolute value of -1 is 1

Absolute value signs makes everything positive

Identify the vertices of the feasible region and use them to find the maximum and/or minimum value for the given linear programm
Ghella [55]

The maximum value of the objective function is 26 and the minimum is -10

<h3>How to determine the maximum and the minimum values?</h3>

The objective function is given as:

z=−3x+5y

The constraints are

x+y≥−2

3x−y≤2

x−y≥−4

Start by plotting the constraints on a graph (see attachment)

From the attached graph, the vertices of the feasible region are

(3, 7), (0, -2), (-3, 1)

Substitute these values in the objective function

So, we have

z= −3 * 3 + 5 * 7 = 26

z= −3 * 0 + 5 * -2 = -10

z= −3 * -3 + 5 * 1 =14

Using the above values, we have:

The maximum value of the objective function is 26 and the minimum is -10

Pre-Calc :
nikitadnepr [17]
The answer is 
x=2t and t=x/2, but we have <span>y = 3t -1
so </span><span>y = 3(x/2) -1
so y = 3x/2  - 1</span>

Sammy served food to a group at a restaurant. The total cost of the food was $62.00. The sales tax is 6% of the cost of food. Th
Phoenix [80]
$62 total food amount
6% tax
20% of original cost of food for tip

62x0.06= 3.72
62x0.2= 12.4

62+12.4+3.72= $78.12

the total cost of the group is $78.12

What's the slope of the line passing through the points -1, 8 - 7, 3​
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

slope = 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you were given two points, you can use the point-slope formula to find the slope. The general equation looks like this:

y₁ - y₂ = m(x₁ - x₂)

In this formula, "m" represents the slope. To find the slope, plug the values from the two points into the equation. Make sure to put the values from the same point in the variable with the same number.

Point 1: (-1, 8)

Point 2: (-7, 3)

y₁ - y₂ = m(x₁ - x₂)                          <----- Original formula

8 - y₂ = m(-1 - x₂)                           <----- Plug in "x" and "y" values from Point 1

8 - 3 = m(-1 - (-7))                           <----- Plug in "x" and "y" values from Point 2

5 = m(-1 - (-7))                                <----- Simplify left side

5 = m(6)                                        <----- Simplify inside parentheses

5/6 = m                                       <----- Divide both sides by 6
