Given :

A contestant on a game show must guess the price of a new car. The contestant will  win if his guess is within $1000 of the price of the car.

To Find :

If the price of the car is  $24,995 and the contestant's guess is represented by g, what absolute value  inequality represents this situation.

Solution :

Let, range in which participant guess would be considered correct is r.

So, r should be in range $( 24,995 ± 1000 ).

( 24,995 - 1000 ) ≤ r ≤ ( 24,995 + 1000 )

23,995 ≤ r ≤ 25,995

Therefore, the correct inequality is 23,995 ≤ r ≤ 25,995 .

Hence, this is the required solution.

I need help on question 2 i need the simplified answer and the restrictions
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

x cannot be 5 or -3.

\frac{x+5}{x+3}

Step-by-step explanation:

The restrictions for a fraction is that the bottom cannot be 0.

So if we find when the bottom is 0 we have found the values that x cannot be.

Let's solve x^2-2x-15=0.

Since the coefficient of x^2 is 1 all we have to do is find two numbers whose product is -15 and whose sum is -2.

Those numbers are -5 and 3 since (-5)(3)=-15 and (-5)+(3)=-2.

So the factored form of the equation is:

(x-5)(x+3)=0

This means either x-5=0 or x+3=0.

We do have to solve both.

x-5=0 can be solved by adding 5 on both sides.

x-5+5=0+5

x+0=0+5

x=5

x+3=0 can be solved by subtracting 3 on both sides.

x+3-3=0-3

x+0=0-3

x=-3

So x can be any number except x=5 or x=-3.

We already factored the bottom as (x-5)(x+3).

The top is a difference of squares, x^2-a^2,

which can be factored as (x-a)(x+a).

So the top factors as (x-5)(x+5).

The fraction can then be written as:

\frac{x^2-25}{x^2-2x-15}=\frac{(x-5)(x+5)}{(x-5)(x+3)}

This can further simplified assuming x is not 5 we can write it as \frac{x+5}{x+3}.  I canceled the common factor of (x-5).

Separate the number 41 and the two parts so that the first number is eight more than twice the second number what are the two nu
vesna_86 [32]

The two numbers are 30 and 11

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that we have to separate the number 41 into two parts

Let the second number be "x"

<em><u>Given that first number is eight more than twice the second number</u></em>

first number = eight more than twice the second number

first number = 8 + twice the "x"

first number = 8 + 2x

So we can say first number added with second number ends up in 41

first number + second number = 41

8 + 2x + x = 41

8 + 3x = 41

3x = 41 - 8

3x = 33

x = 11

first number = 8 + 2x = 8 + 2(11) = 8 + 22 = 30

Thus the two numbers are 30 and 11
