73/4 is the answer to your question sir your welcome
Absolute values are a way of finding a distant from zero, which means there will be 2 answers; one will be positive, and the other will be negative.
|<em>3x - 4</em>| = 5<em>and</em> |3<em>x - 4</em> = a^5 Because you need 2 answers, you have to make 5 positive and negative.
Another way to write this equation would be...
5=|3x-4|=—5
Now lets continue...
5=3x-4=—5
Add 4 to both sides...
9=3x=—1
Now divide by 3...
3=x= -1/3
So the solution is...
X={-1/3 3}
Answer:
x = -48
Step-by-step explanation:
4x + 2 = 5(x + 10)
expand the 5(x+10)
4x + 2 = 5x + 50
-2 both sides
4x + 2 - 2 = 5x + 50 - 2
simplify
4x = 5x + 48
-5x both sides
4x - 5x = 5x + 48 - 5x
simplify
-x = 48
÷ (-1) both sides
-x ÷ (-1) = 48 ÷ (-1)
simplify
x = -48
The answer is x = -48.
