If 5x - 17 ≥ 0, then |5x - 17| = 5x - 17 and the equation reduces to
-8 - 2 (5x - 17) = -14
-8 - 10x + 34 = -14
-10x = -40
x = 4
If 5x - 17 < 0, then |5x - 17| = -(5x - 17) = -5x + 17 and we have
-8 - 2 (-5x + 17) = -14
-8 + 10x - 34 = -14
10x = 28
x = 2.8
Answer:
46.56 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
4.3 pounds
2 pounds
3.8 pounds, and
5.9 pounds
Let us find the total weight of all the items
=4.3+2+3.8+5.9
=16 pounds
We are told that he is charged $2.91 per pound for shipping
Hence the cost of shipping 16 pounds is
=2.91*16
=46.56 pounds
Answer:
False, there are actually infinite solutions as these are parallel lines.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a right angle triangle and you use the Pythagorean theorem to solve for the hypotenuse (the diagonal)
A^2 + B^2 = C^2
8^2 + 8^2 = C^2
64 + 64 = C^2
128 = C^2
C = square_root (128)
C = 11 (to the nearest whole number)
The diagonal is 11 feet (to the nearest whole number)
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
Sum of first 4 numbers= 4*5= 20
This includes 3 + 4th number
Sum of last 4 numbers= 4*8= 32
This includes 4th number + 3
Sum of 7 numbers= 7*(6+4/7)= 46
This includes 3+4th number +3
Number common to both sets= (20+32)- 46 = 6
