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!!

Two and two fifths divided by one and a half
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

8/5 or 1 3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

2 2/5 = 12/5

1 1/2 = 3/2

Now that we have fractions that are easier to divide, one must understand that the opposite of dividing is multiplying. So if you multiply 12/5 by the reciprocal* of 3/2, which would be 2/3, you would get your answer so...

12     3         12    2        24     8             3

—  ÷ —   =   — × —    =  —  = —   <em>or</em>  1  —

5       2         5     3        15      5             5

*the reciprocal is the opposite of the fraction you have. So the denominator would become the numerator, and vise versa.

5.65 times 3.4 estimate
lidiya [134]
We can round 5.65 up to 6 and 3.4 down to 3.
3 * 6 = 18
now let's see how close our estimate is to the real answer
5.65 * 3.4 = 19.21
Our answer was pretty close to the real answer!

Hope I helped!
