Let's do this step by step:
Subtract both sides by 7
-2|x-4|= -10
Divide each side by -2
|x-4|= 5
Now since this is an absolute value equation, you will have two answers. This means you make the equation both positive and negative.
X-4= 5and -(x-4)= 5
Solve for x for both
X-4= 5: add four on both sides
X= 9
-x+ 4= 5: subtract 4 and divide by -1
X= -1
So your answer is: X= -1 , 9
(-5/6)+(-5/6) have the same denominator (number at bottom of fraction), so all you have to do is add the numerator(top number). So -5 +-5 =-10 . Now you have -10/6, which simplifies to -5/3.
Hope this helps :)
I don’t understand this question can u please clarify it
The answer is fifteen yards
Answer:
144
Step-by-step explanation:
Jane has 2 times as many books as Jill, so there are 3 parts. Two parts Jane and one part Jill. So, divide 216 by 3 and it's 72, which equals one part. Jane has two parts, so 72 x 2. Jane has 144 books.
