Equation #1:
|2x - 3| = 17
The first solution is
2x - 3 = 17
2x = 17 + 3 = 20
x = 10
The second solution is
3 - 2x = 17
-2x = 17 - 3 = 14
x = -7
The solutions are x = 10 or x = -7.

Equation #2:
|5x + 3| = 12
The only solution is
5x + 3 = 12
5x = 12 - 3 = 9
x = 9/5

Let us examine the given answers.
a. Equation #1 and #2 have the same number of solutions.
    FALSE
b. Equation @1 has more solutions than Equation #2.
    TRUE
c. Equation #1 has fewer solutions than equation #2.
    FALSE
d. None of the statements a,b, or c apply.
    FALSE

Answer: b.

Can someone do 15?!?!?
andrew-mc [135]

<u>Given</u>:

The given triangle is a right triangle.

The length of the hypotenuse is 31 units.

The length of the leg is 23 units.

One of the angle is x.

We need to determine the value of x.

<u>Value of x:</u>

The value of x can be determined using the trigonometric ratio.

Thus, we have;

sin \ \theta=\frac{opp}{hyp}

Substituting \theta=x, the side opposite to the angle x measures 23 units and the hypotenuse is 31.

Thus, we have;

sin \ x=\frac{23}{31}

Dividing, we get;

sin \ x=0.74

Taking sin ^{-1} on both sides of the equation, we get;

x=sin^{-1}(0.74)

x=47.7

Rounding off to the nearest whole integer, we get;

x=48

Thus, the value of x is 48°

Hence, Option c is the correct answer.

Solve for x 9(x-1) = 2
Katen [24]

Answer: x = 9/11

Step-by-step explanation:

First, distribute 9 to x and -1

9x - 9 = 2

Then add 9 to both sides

9x = 11

Then divide both sides by 9

x = 9/11

Hope it helps :)
