x − y = 0 = difference
x + y = 4 = sum
Can be solved by the sum and difference rule (most of the time without pen and paper)
x=(sum+difference)/2=0+4/2=2
y=(sum-difference)/2=(4-0)/2=2
Answer:
x = -
, x = 
Step-by-step explanation:
The absolute value function always gives a positive value, however, the expression inside can be positive or negative, that is
- 3x + 16 = 18 or -(- 3x + 16) = 18
Solving
- 3x + 16 = 18 ( subtract 16 from both sides )
- 3x = 2 ( divide both sides by - 3 )
x = - 
or
-(- 3x + 16) = 18
3x - 16 = 18 ( add 16 to both sides )
3x = 34 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = 
As a check
Substitute these values into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side then they are the solutions.
| - 3(-
) + 16 | = | 2 + 16 | = | 18 | = 18 ← True
| - 3(
) + 16 | = | - 34 + 16 | = | - 18 | = 18 ← True
Thus x = -
and x =
are the solutions
Answer:
4 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The computation of the scale that should be required to reproduced that fitted on the brochure is
Given that
Length of rectangular park = 4 inches
And the Breadth of rectangular park = 6 inches
As we know that
Area of rectangular park = length × breadth
= 4×6
= 24 square inches
Now the scale that required to reproduced is
= 24 ÷ 6
= 4 inches
Answer:
