Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In standard form this could be rewritten as | b - 0 | > 6, which in words, says,
"b is greater than 6 units away from 0 on a number line". If b is greater than 6 units away, both positive 6 and negative 6 are 6 units away from 0. Because the values we need are greater than 6 units away from 0, we are starting at both 6 and -6 and moving away from 0.
The "greater than" symbol indicates that this is a disjunction so the word "or" is used as opposed to in a conjunction where the word "and" is used.
Therefore, our solutions are
b < -6 or b > 6, the 3rd choice down
You must be given with the point of the whole line. Knowing that you would have 4 equal parts, there must be 5 divisions. The first thing to do is find the midpoint of the endpoints of the line to create a mid-partition. You now have 2 equal parts. Next, find the midpoint again for the 2 equal parts. You make 2 new parts again for each side. The total would be 4.
To find the midpoint, just find the average of the corresponding x- and y-coordinates of the 2 points. If point A(1,2) and point B is (3,4), the midpoint would be (2, 3).
Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 34 = 4x + 20
2x = 14
x = 7
