Answer:

x=8 x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

|x-3| -10=-5

Add 10 to each side

|x-3| -10+10=-5+10

|x-3| =5

Now separate into two equations , one positive and one negative

x-3 = 5 x-3 = -5

Add 3 to each side

x-3+3 = 5+3 x-3+3 = -5 +3

x=8 x=-2

Answer:

x = ± 8

Step-by-step explanation:

|x - 3| - 10 = - 5

|x - 3| - 10 + 10 = - 5 + 10

|x - 3| = 5

x - 3 = 5

x - 3 + 3 = 5 + 3

x + 3 = - 5

x + 3 - 3 = - 5 - 3

x = - 8

Answer:

$2\frac{1}{2}\ liters$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Convert mixed number to an improper fraction

$1\frac{1}{5}=\frac{1*5+1}{5}=\frac{6}{5}$

step 2

Using proportion

$\frac{3}{(6/5)}\frac{liters}{doors} =\frac{x}{1}\frac{liters}{door}\\ \\x=3/(6/5)\\ \\x=15/6\ liters$

step 3

Convert to mixed number

$\frac{15}{6}\ liters=\frac{12}{6}+\frac{3}{6}=2\frac{1}{2}\ liters$

A) What is the slope and the y-intercept of the equation?

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + b ( m is the slope and b the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, 0) ← 2 points on the line

m = $\frac{0-3}{4-0}$ = $\frac{-3}{4}$ = - $\frac{3}{4}$

The y- intercept is where the line crosses the y- axis

The line crosses the y- axis at (0, 3 ) ⇒ b = 3

(b)

y = - $\frac{3}{4}$ x + 3 ← equation of line

Answer:

the answer is 52.

Step-by-step explanation:

because of the locations of the two angles, it can be concluded that 156=3x.

now you have an equation.

solve for x.

$156=3x\\156/3= x\\52=x$

hope this helps ;)
