| 2x + 9 | = 15 Help pls

Mathematics
1 answer:
ikadub [295]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

x = 3 and x = -12

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve an absolute value equation, you create two equations, one where the right side is negated and one where the right side isn't:

| 2x + 9 | = 15 becomes:

2x + 9 = 15 and 2x + 9 = -15

2x = 6 and 2x = -24

x = 3 and x = -12

Why this works is that |-x| and |x| will both be equal to 0. Remember that absolute value is the distance a number is away from 0.

The mean is a better descriptor for skewed distribution. <br> a. true <br> b. false
vitfil [10]
Most likely true. It depends. When the distribution is skewed with an extreme tilting it to one side, median would be a better measure of central tendency. If the extremities are almost balanced on both sides then mean would be a better measure of central tendency.

Lauren drove 232 miles in 4 hours if she continued at the same rate how far would she travel in 15 hours
kompoz [17]
She would drive 870 miles in 15 hours

If you divide 232 by 4, you discover she travels 58 miles in one hour.

If you multiply 58 (the miles she drives in one hour) by 15 (the amount of hours) you get 870.

Ivan buys candy that costs $7 per pound. He will buy at most 9 pounds of candy. What are the possible amounts he will spend on c
Flauer [41]

Answer: 7c ≤ 63

Ivan will buy at most 9 pounds of candy, which means that multiplying 9 by 7, the cost of the candy, will get your answer: 63. Plug these values into an inequality with a less than or equal to sign (≤) facing away from 63 and you're done!
