Why does an absolute value equation equal to zero only has 1 equation

Mathematics
1 answer:
slega [8]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason why an absolute value equation equal to zero only has one solution

We set the absolute value equation equal to ± the solution

±0 = 0  There is only one value for ±0 which is 0, therefore there is only one solution

Answer:

52 Degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 29 (lower number) from 81 (higher number). This will often give you the difference (52) between the two measurements.

The sum of two numbers that differ by 3 is x, what is the value of the greater of the two numbers?
jolli1 [7]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

You really don't have enough information to solve this with one answer. You want a value for y and there is no what to limit it to just 1 set of values. For example if x = 23 then

x = y + y - 3

x = 2y - 3

23 = 2y - 3           Add three to both sides

23+3 =  2y           Combine

26 = 2y                Divide by 2

26/2 = 2y/2          Do the division

13 = y

The smaller number is 13 - 3 = 10

Their sum is 13 + 10=23           But that answer is not unique.

====================

Suppose x = 13

13 = 2y - 3              Add 3

13 + 3 = 2y

16 = 2y

y =8

The larger number = 8

The smaller number = 5

=======================

The best I can do is give you the equation which is

x = 2y - 3

Write an equation of the line that passes through (-6, 6) and is parallel to the line y = -2x + 2.
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

y = -2x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the slopes of the lines are equal when the lines are parallel to each other.

So, the equation of the given line is<u> y = -2x + 2.</u>

Here,

y = mx + c

y = -2x + 2

slope ⇒ m ⇒ -2

Therefore, the slope of the new line will be ( - 2 ).

<u>And now we have to find the y-intercept ( c ).</u>

For that let us use the given coordinate.

( -6 , 6 ) ⇒ ( x , y )

To find the y-intercept we have to make c the subject of the equation y mx + c.

Also, we have to replace m with ( - 2 ) as the slope of the new line is -2.

<u>Let us solve it now.</u>

y = m x + c

6 = -2 × -6 + c

6 = 12 + c

6 - 12 = c

-6 = c

Now we have found that,

m ⇒ - 2

c ⇒ -6

<u>And now let us write the equation of the line.</u>

y = m x + c

<u>y = -2x - 6</u>

Write an algebraic expression to represent the pay (in dollars) for working "x" hours at a rate of eight dollars and seventy-fiv
Olenka [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hours worked = X

Money earned per hour = $8.75

Your answer would be A.

E.g.) Say that there is another part to this question.

  You work for 3 hours, how much money would you earn after three hours? Use your equation "8.75x"

We know that "x" is equal to the hours worked, so plug in 3 for x.

8.75x = 8.75 *x

8.75 * 3= 26.25

So, if  you worked 3 hours, your total pay would be $26.25 (Note: this is not part of your answer, just an example to show you how equations work)

Hope this helps :)
