| 2x + 9 | = 15 Help pls

Mathematics

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.

Answer:

S = 13 - x

T = (18 + x) / 2

Step-by-step explanation:

S = 18

T= 18

Sue gives away x, so subtract it from 18. But Tony gets x, so add it to 18 in his expression.

S = 18 - x

T= 18 + x

Sue eats 5 so subtract 5 from her expression. Tony eats half, so divide his expression by 2.

S = 18 - x - 5

T = 18 + x / 2

Simplify 18-5.

S = 13 - x

T = (18 + x) / 2

Let us check series : -10 /-2 = 5 -50/-10 = 5

so it is a geometric series with a= -2 and r= 5

sum formula for n terms of geometric series = a ( r^n -1 ) /( r-1)

here we find S5 that is n= 5 = -2 ( 5^ 5 - 1) /( 5-1)

= -2 ( 3125 -1) / 4 = -1562

second series is : 1.5/1 = 1.5 2.25/1.5 = 1.5

this is also geometric series but n = 12 a= 1 and r= 1.5

we use same formula

S12 = 1 ( (1.5) ^12 -1) /( 1.5-1) =

128.74 / 0.5 = 257.49

Last is 2/1= 2 4/2 = 2 8/4 = 2 so r = 2 a = 1 and n = 12

we use same formula 1 ( 2^12 - 1) / (2-1)

= 4095

Answers : -1562 , 257.49 , 4095
