Here is one way to solve for x.
Step 1) 2x^2-7=9
Step 2) 2x^2-7+7=9+7
Step 3) 2x^2=16
Step 4) (2x^2)/2=16/2
Step 5) x^2=8
Step 6) sqrt(x^2)=sqrt(8)
Step 7) |x|=sqrt(8)
Step 8) x=sqrt(8) or x=-sqrt(8)
-------------------------------------
Below are explanations/reasons to each of the steps above.
Step 1) Original equation
Step 2) Add 7 to both sides
Step 3) Combine like terms
Step 4) Divide both sides by 2
Step 5) Simplify
Step 6) Apply the square root to both sides. The notation "sqrt" is shorthand for "square root"
Step 7) Use the rule that sqrt(x^2) = |x| for all real numbers x
Step 8) Use the rule that if |x| = k then x = k or x = -k for some fixed number k.
-------------------------------------
The two solutions are
x = sqrt(8) or x = -sqrt(8)

How do people......I just don't understand this
The values are |-3.25| = 3.25 and |-4.25| = 4.25
<h3>How to determine the values of the expressions?</h3>
The expressions are given as
|-3.25| and |-4.25|
The above expressions are absolute value expressions
And as a general rule, an absolute value expression, when evaluated must follow the following rule
|±a| = a
Using the above as a guide, we have
|-3.25| = 3.25
Also, we have
|-4.25| = 4.25
Hence, the values of the expressions are |-3.25| = 3.25 and |-4.25| = 4.25

Answer:
The right triangle has one 90 degree angle and two acute (< 90 degree) angles. Since the sum of the angles of a triangle is always 180 degrees... The two sides of the triangle that are by the right angle are called the legs... and the side opposite of the right angle is called the hypotenuse.
