Answer:
x = 7 m and x = −7 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Its a modulus problem
concept
|x| = x when x>=0
|x| = -x when x < 0
____________________________________
Now given
|x| − 2 = 5
adding 2 both sides
|x| − 2 + 2 = 5 + 2
|x| = 7
now
x = 7 when x >= 0
x = -7 when x<0
Thus, correct answer is x = 7 m and x = −7 m
Answer:
y = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
A line parallel to the x- axis has equation
y = c
Where c is the value of the y- coordinates the line passes through
The line passes through (1, 5) with y- coordinate of 5, thus
y = 5 ← equation of line
You can use factors to solve. Determine all the factor pairs of 24, find the two that are two numbers apart.
1, 24 X
2, 12 X
3, 8 X
4, 6 YES!
Algebraic way to solve using Quadratics:
l = 2 + w
A = lw
A = (2 + w)w Substitute (2 + w) for l
24 = (2 + w)w Substitute 24 in for the area
24 = 2w + w^2 Distribute
w^2 + 2w - 24 = 0 Set equal to 0 (put in standard form)
(w + 6) (w - 4) = 0 Factor
w + 6 = 0 and w - 4 = 0 Set each factor equal to 0.
So w= -6 or w = 4 ... -6 makes no sense for a length! So the width must be 4 and the length will be 4 + 2, which is 6.
The range of the data is 6-13
