<span> |9x-12| < -4
There is no solution for this inequality...
Because an absolute value is NEVER less than an a negative number </span>
Answer:
x = -8
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's put this into numbers: 
x =-6
The first thing you want to do is to multiply both sides by 4:
3x=-24
Next you need to divide by 3:
x=-8
The answer is -8
Answer:1/2 y
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve this using ration reasoning:
x
2
x
1
=
y
2
y
1
Explanation:
If
x
varies directly with
y
(written
x
∝
y
), then doubling
y
means doubling
x
, so the rations of final values and initial values will be the same:
x
2
x
1
=
y
2
y
1
In this case,
x
2
9
=
24
18
x
2
=
9
⋅
24
18
=
12
Or, intuitively, if
x
∝
y
and
x
=
9
when
y
=
18
, we can conclude that
x
=
1
2
y
and
1
2
of 24 is 12.
