Answer: $6
Step-by-step explanation:
answer:
x=1/3
x=11/3
STEP 1:
Rearrange this Absolute Value Equation
Absolute value equalitiy entered
-3|x-2|+9 = 4
Another term is moved / added to the right hand side.
To make the absolute value term positive, both sides are multiplied by (-1).
3|x-2| = 5
STEP 2:
Clear the Absolute Value Bars
Clear the absolute-value bars by splitting the equation into its two cases, one for the Positive case and the other for the Negative case.
The Absolute Value term is 3|x-2|
For the Negative case we'll use -3(x-2)
For the Positive case we'll use 3(x-2)
STEP 3:
Solve the Negative Case
-3(x-2) = 5
Multiply
-3x+6 = 5
Rearrange and Add up
-3x = -1
Divide both sides by 3
-x = -(1/3)
Multiply both sides by(-1)
x = (1/3)
Which is the solution for the Negative Case
STEP 4:
Solve the Positive Case
3(x-2) = 5
Multiply
3x-6 = 5
Rearrange and Add up
3x = 11
Divide both sides by 3
x = (11/3)
Which is the solution for the Positive Case
giving us x=1/3 or x=11/3

Answer:
n/-5 - 9 = 2
Should be the correct answer.
From clue 3, we know that the three numbers average to 15. This means we add up the three numbers x,y and z and divide by 3 to get 15. So one equation is (x+y+z)/3 = 15 which turns into x+y+z = 45 after multiplying both sides by 3.
Let's say that x < y < z. In other words x is the smallest number, y is the middle and z is the largest. Based on clue 2, this would tell us that z = 8*x (since largest is 8 times the smallest). We can replace the 'z' in the equation x+y+z = 45 with 8x like so
x+y+z = 45
x+y+8x = 45 ... replace z with 8x
9x+y = 45
Now onto clue #1. The smallest number x is a prime number and it is 1/6 times the size of the middle number y. Put another way, the middle number y is 6 times larger than the smallest number. We have this equation y = 6*x
9x+y = 45
9x+6x = 45 ... replace ywith 6x
15x = 45
x = 45/15
x = 3 which is a prime number
Now that we know x = 3, we can use it to find y
y = 6*x = 6*3 = 18
and then use x = 3 to find z
z = 8*x = 8*3 = 24
Therefore the three mystery numbers are 3, 18, and 24. Note how these three values add to 3+18+24 = 45 which you then divide over 3 to get 45/3 = 15. So the average of the values 3, 18, 24 is the number 15. This helps confirm the answer.
