Answer: 2 solutions.
The given equation breaks down into these two equations
3x+12 = 18 and 3x+12 = -18
Basically 3x+12 equal to plus 18 and minus 18. This is due to the fact that something like |x| = 7 means x = 7 or x = -7, ie those x values are exactly seven units away from zero on the number line.
If you want to solve each equation, then
3x+12 = 18
3x = 18-12
3x = 6
x = 6/3
x = 2 is one solution
and
3x+12 = -18
3x = -18-12
3x = -30
x = -30/3
x = -10 is the other solution
Answer:
C) 60 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
From any dot in the graph you can figure out the speed.
Let's take the one at 2 minutes, because it is on a grid point.
That one tells us that in 2 minutes, the animal travels 40 feet.
That means in 1 minute, it travels half that, i.e., 20 feet.
So in 3 minutes it will travel 20*3=60 feet.
Answer:
n = 55/8
Step-by-step explanation:
You can solve it by cross multiplying. Where you multiply the denominator of the fraction on the left side with the numerator on the right side, and vice versa.
11/n = 8/5
n x 8 = 11 x 5
8n = 55
n = 55/8
(or 6.875)
Answer:
-11 4/9
Step-by-step explanation:
-3 1/9 minus 8 1/3 with common denominators would be -3 1/9 minus 8 3/9, and that would be -11 4/9.
