Answer:
x = -
, x = 
Step-by-step explanation:
The absolute value function always gives a positive value, however, the expression inside can be positive or negative, that is
- 3x + 16 = 18 or -(- 3x + 16) = 18
Solving
- 3x + 16 = 18 ( subtract 16 from both sides )
- 3x = 2 ( divide both sides by - 3 )
x = - 
or
-(- 3x + 16) = 18
3x - 16 = 18 ( add 16 to both sides )
3x = 34 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = 
As a check
Substitute these values into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side then they are the solutions.
| - 3(-
) + 16 | = | 2 + 16 | = | 18 | = 18 ← True
| - 3(
) + 16 | = | - 34 + 16 | = | - 18 | = 18 ← True
Thus x = -
and x =
are the solutions
Answer:
x = 5
y = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
just substitute the value of one variable into the other
-x +y = -1
or y = -1 +x <-------- (i just added x to the right side)
now u know what y is equal to, just substitute that value into the first equation
2x - (-1+x) = 6 <-------- instead of y, i put the value of y from the 2 equation
NOW SOLVE FOR X!
2x +1 -x = 6
x + 1 = 6
x = 5
now solve for y since you have the value of x
y = -1 + x
or y = -1 + 5
y = 4
So each time, 24/12 or $2 was deducted per trip
he has 30-24=$6 left
$6/$2=3, he has 3 trips left
I wonder what your question is
Depending on the way you look at the numbers, they are increasing/decreasing by 0.1.
0.36- 0.1 =0.26
0.26-0.1=0.16
0.16-0.1=0.06
0.06-0.1=-0.04
-0.04-0.1=-0.14
(Or vice versa by adding 0.1 starting with -0.14)
Make sense?
