What are the two equations to set up to solve the equation |2x−4|=10 ?

Mathematics
1 answer:
-BARSIC- [3]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The absolute value function always gives a positive result

However, the expression inside can be positive or negative

| 2x - 4 | = 10

2x - 4 = 10 ← positive expression

2x - 4 = - 10 ← negative expression

Solving both gives

2x - 4 = 10 ( add 4 to both sides )

2x = 14 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 7

and

2x - 4 = - 10 ( add 4 to both sides )

2x = - 6 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = - 3

Splitting investments. Joan had $3,000 to invest. She invested part of it in an investment paying 8% and the remainder in an inv
loris [4]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

Let assume that the invested amount in the investment paying 8% interest is a

Now, since the total amount invested = $3000.

Then, the amount invested in the investment that will be paying 10% interest can be represented as:

= $(3000-a)

Income earned on $a that is being invested in 8% interest = $a × 8/100 = $0.08a

Income earned from $(3000-a)  in the 10% investment is:

= $(3000-a)× 10/100

= $(300 - 0.1a)

Since total income of the two investment = $290;

Then;

0.08a + (300 - 0.1a) = 290

0.08a + 300 - 0.1a = 20-

300 - 0.02a = 290

-0.02a = -10

a = -10/-0.02

x = 500

Thus;

the amount invested in an investment paying 8% interest = $500

the amount invested in an investment paying 10% interest = $(3000 - 500) = $2500

L = 2 W
B = L x W = 2 W²
Side Area = 2 W H + 2 L H = 2 H ( W + L ) = 6 H W
V = 2 W² H = 10
H = 5 / W²
Cost = 15 * 2 W² + 9 * 5/W
= 30 W² + 270/ W 
C ` = 60 W - 270 / W² 
= ( 60 W² - 270 ) / W² = 0
60 W² = 270
W ² = 270 : 60
W² = 4.5
W = √ 4.5 = 2.12
Cost (min) = 15 * 2 * 4.5 + 30 / 2.12 = 135 + 14.15 = $149.15
Answer: The cost of materials for the cheapest such container is $149.15.
