The first step for absolute value equations is to isolate the expression contained within the absolute value bars:
3|2x+4|-1 = 11
3|2x+4| = 12
|2x+4| = 4
so |2x+4| is 4 units away from 0 on a number line, but we don't know in which direction -- negative or positive? you'll have two answers.
2x+4 = 4
AND
2x+4 = -4
solve both of those two step equations and you'll get
x = 0
AND
x = -4
so 0 and -4 are your solutions.
<h3>Answer:</h3>
5
<h3>Solution:</h3>
- First, n*7 can be written as 7n.
- Then, 7*5 is equivalent to 35.
- So we have
- 7n=35
- In order to find the value of n, we need to divide both sides by 7:
- n=5
Hope it helps.
Do comment if you have any query.
If x=girls,
then we have 3x boys.
We know that all children are boys+girls, so x+3x, which is 4x and 4x is 48, so one x is 12.
So there are 12 girls and 36 boys.
Answer:
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
8(4-x) = 7x + 2
1) Distribute : 32 - 8x = 7x + 2
2) Subtract 32 : -8x = 7x - 30
3) Subtract 7x : -15x = -30
4) Divide 15 : x = 2 :)
The answer is .1
