2x + 12 = 18
18 - 12 = 6
2x = 6
x = 3

So you want to drop the absolute value signs and you need to make two equations:

2x + 12 = 18 OR 2x + 12 = -18
subtract both sides by 12 for both equations
2x = 6 OR 2x = -30
divide both sides by 2 for both equations
x = 3 OR x = -15

i hope this helps!!

Answer:

7. 5 \frac{5}{8} pizza

8. B

9. 11 \frac{1}{5} inches

10. -12

11. \frac{3}{20}

12. 4

Step-by-step explanation:

7. 3 \frac{1}{2} \\ + 2 \frac{1}{8}

make them mixed fractions: \frac{7}{2} + \frac{17}{8}

get a common denominator by multiplying \frac{7}{2} by 4: \frac{28}{8} + \frac{17}{8}

add the numerators: \frac{45}{8}

simplify the fraction by dividing 45 by 8: 5 \frac{5}{8}

8. 3 x 6 = 18

5 x 6 = 30

7 x 6 = 42

9 x 6 = 54

therefore, y = 6x

9. 5:7 is similar to 8:L

divide 8 by 5: 1 \frac{3}{5}

multiply 7 by 1 \frac{3}{5}: 11 \frac{1}{5}

L = 11 \frac{1}{5} inches

10. 5 - 2x = 29

subtract 5 from each side: -2x = 24

divide each side by -2: x = -12

11. fruit = 15%

15% = 15/100

simplify by dividing by 5: \frac{3}{20}

12. the y-intercept is where the line crosses the y-axis (the vertical one). the line crosses the y-axis at 4.
