Answer:

x=9

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x-3)=12

First you use the distributive property

so you do 2 times x then 2 times -3

rewrite it as 2x-6=12

add 6 on both sides

2x=18

divide 2 from both sides and you get x=9

Jamie is buying 5 concert tickets, and he wants his total cost to be no more than $4 Above or below $80. Which inequality models

kumpel [21]

Answer:

Option C $\left|80-5x\right|\le 4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the cost of the concert ticket

we know that

The total cost to be no more than $4 Above $80

$5x\leq 80+4$

Solve for x

$x\leq \$16.80$

The total cost to be no more than $4 below $80

$5x\geq 80-4$

Solve for x

$5x\geq 76$

$x\geq \$15.2$

therefore

The inequality that represent this problem is

$\left|5x-80\right|\le 4$

Verify

First solution (positive case)

$+(5x-80)\le 4$

$5x\le 80+4$

Solve for x

$x\leq \$16.80$ ----> is ok

Second solution (negative case)

$-(5x-80)\le 4$

Multiply by -1 both sides

$(5x-80)\ge -4$

$5x\geq 80-4$

Solve for x

$5x\geq 76$

$x\geq \$15.2$ ---> is ok

Remember that

$\left|5x-80\right|\le 4$ is equivalent to $\left|80-5x\right|\le 4$

Because is a absolute value
