Solve each equation. Be sure to check for extraneous solution -7= |a-3|/-2

Mathematics

stepan [7]3 years ago

Answer:

a = -11, 17.

Step-by-step explanation:

-7 =  |a-3| / -2

Multiply both sides by -2:

|a - 3| = 14

So a - 3 = 14

Giving a = 17

or

a - 3 =- -14

giving a = -11.

Checking these values:

-7 = |17-3| / -2 = 14/-2 = -7  

- so a = 17 is a solution.

-7 = |-11-3| / -2 = 14/-2 = -7

so a = -11 is also a solution.

A line is graphed to show the relationship between the number of words typed and the time Mary spends on a typing test.
Ilya [14]
Thanks for including the graph! 

Okay, so -

From examining the graph, we can see that for every minute the number of words increases by 40. 

Now, since the x axis (the horizontal thingy kabob at the bottom) is time, and the y axis (the vertical thingy kabob) is the number of words - we can conclude that the answer is B! 

Just remember that the value of the y axis is dependent on the value of the x axis. Also, note that x almost always represents time!

A coat was originally priced at $175. It went on sale for $113.75. What was the percent that the coat was discounted
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

35% (decrease)

Step-by-step explanation:

V2-V1/V1 x 100

= 113.75-175/175 x 100

= -61.25/175 x 100

= -0.35 x 100

= -35% (change/decrease)
