Solve |-x + 4 | = | 2x - 2| by graphing P/s: if possible show me how to do it T-T

1 answer:

4 0

I always like to start by removing the absolute value signs. Solving the two equations, -x+4 = 2x-2 we get 6 = 3x, x = 2
If we test ±2 we get the following:
x = 2; | -(2) + 4 | = | 2(2) - 2 |, | 2 | = | 2 |, 2 = 2
Now we test
X = -2; | -(-2) + 4 | = | 2(-2) - 2 |, | 6 | = | -6 |, 6 = 6
Both +2 and -2 work.

The diagram shown is two intersecting lines. The measure of 5 is 47°.

Bingel [31]

Answer:

a) 37º

b) 143º

c) 2x - 5 = 143

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Angles 5 and 7 are vertical angles and therefore have the same measurements.

b) Angles 5 and 6 form a straight line and are therefore supplementary (add up to 180º). 180 - 37 = 143.

c) We found the measure of angle 6 is 143º in part b. We can set that equal to 2x - 5. Therefore the equation is 2x - 5 = 143.
