Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define Equation</u>

4x + 9 = 2x + 15

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Subtract 2x on both sides:                    2x + 9 = 15
  2. Subtract 9 on both sides:                      2x = 6
  3. Divide 2 on both sides:                          x = 3

<u>Step 3: Check</u>

<em>Plug in x into the original equation to verify it's a solution.</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>x</em>:                    4(3) + 9 = 2(3) + 15
  2. Multiply:                               12 + 9 = 6 + 15
  3. Add:                                     21 = 21

Here we see that 21 does indeed equal 21.

∴ x = 3 is the solution to the equation.

PLEASE HELP!!!!! Write the absolute value inequality in the form
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

|x - 1 |> 6,

Step-by-step explanation:

First we find the distance between the two points

-5 to 7

7 - -5 =7+5 = 12

We find 1/2 that distance

12/2 = 6

So we are looking for a greater-than inequality  because we are looking for the outsides because we want a less than and a greater than

|x - b |> c,

The center is 6 to that is c

|x - b |> 6,

To find the value of b

Let x = 7

7 -b =6

b=1

|x - 1 |> 6,

We can check by using -5

|-5 - 1 |> 6,
