The absolute value makes it 9
Answer:
b. -3
Step-by-step explanation:
9(2x+1) < 9x-18
(distribute the 9)
18x+9 <9x-18
(subtract 9 from both sides)
18x<9x-27
(subtract 9x from both sides)
9x<-27
(divide both sides by 9)
x<-3
The answer is 2.8. or around there
Answer:
{-2,10}
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 - 8x = 20
Take the coefficient of x
-8
Divide by 2
-8/2 =-4
Square it
(-4)^2 =16
Add this to each side
x^2 - 8x+16 = 20+16
x^2 - 8x+16 = 36
The left hand side becomes( x + (-8/2) )^2
(x - 4)^2 = 36
Take the square root of each side
sqrt((x - 4)^2) =±sqrt( 36)
x-4 = ±6
Add 4 to each side
x-4+4 = 4±6
x = 4±6
x = 4+6 x = 4-6
x = 10 x = -2
