4|y-9| > 36
Two equations:
4(y-9)>36 then y-9>8 then y>17
4(y-9)<-36 then y-9<-8 then y<1
So, the solution is y<1 or y>17
0.5|x+2| > 6
Two equations:
0.5(x+2) > 6 then 0.5x+1>6 then x>10
0.5(x+2) < -6 then 0.5x+1<-6 then x<-14
So, the solution is: x<-14 or x>10
Area of one wall = 14×8=112sqft
112 sqft ×4=448sqft

Answers:
Choice C) 1.5 + AB = 3.7
AB = 2.2 cm
====================================================
Explanation:
Segment AC can be cut into two smaller pieces AB and BC. The piece AB is of unknown length for now, while BC is 1.5 units long.
The expression AB+1.5 or 1.5+AB represents us adding those two smaller pieces together. Doing so will lead to the length of AC.
Therefore, 1.5 + AB = 3.7 is one valid equation to set up.
------------
To solve that equation, we subtract 1.5 from both sides to undo the addition operation done to AB.
1.5 + AB = 3.7
AB = 3.7 - 1.5
AB = 2.2
Notice how,
1.5 + AB = 1.5 + 2.2 = 3.7
to help confirm our answer.
