Answer:9x-9=7 or 9x-9=-7
Step-by-step explanation:
An absolute value is the distance from zero, therefore the answer can not be negative. In this case, 9x-9=7 and 9x-9=-7 both work, because 7 and -7 are the same distance from zero.
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
Since a^2+b^2=c^2 becomes 20^2+b^2=29^2, we solve for b:
400+b^2=841
b^2=441
b=21
So the length of b is 21 units.

Answer:
First we must learn to dissect a question.
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
Part 1
We can list our facts first:
- Every 2 dozen cookies takes 1.5 teaspoons of cinnamon to make
- She needs 13 dozen cookies
She needs 13 dozen cookies. So (13/2)x 1.5 teaspoons
<h3>Part 2</h3>
She needs 9.75 teaspoons and 3 teaspoons make a tablespoon
So..
If these triangles are congruent, then side RS is congruent to side TV and that means that y = 4 - x. If y = 4-x, we can sub that into the next equation where side RV = side ST and 1 = 4x - y. If y = 4-x, we sub in accordingly to get 1 =4x - (4 - x). That simplifies to 1 = 4x - 4 + x which is, combining like terms, 5 = 5x. That means that x = 1. If x = 1, and y = 4 - x, then y = 4 - 1 and y = 3. There you go!
