Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, |x| = x when x >= 0 and |-x| = x when x < 0.

So,there are two ways to solve this equation -2|x + 5| = 8.

In the 1st case, let's assume (x + 5) >= 0

=> |x + 5| = x + 5

=> -2(x + 5) = 8

=> x + 5 = 8 / -2 = -4

=> x = -4 - 5 = -9

In the 2nd case, let's assume (x + 5) < 0

=> |x + 5| = -(x + 5) = -x - 5

=> -2 (-x -5) = 8

=> (-x -5) = -4

=> -x = 1

=> x = -1

These are the 2 solutions by solving the math in two different ways.

I hope this helps.

Let me if you have any more questions.

Describe the pattern that you see in the table for the right column. Please help me describe it in complete sentences. Extra poi
Gwar [14]

The pattern on the table is x increases:

  • The sine of x increases
  • The cosine of x increases
  • The function sin²(x) + cos²(x) remains constant

<h3>How to describe the pattern?</h3>

The functions on the table of values are:

sin(x), cos(x) and sin²(x) + cos²(x)

To describe the pattern, we simply observe how the values of the function change, as x increases.

As x increases, on the table:

  • The sine of x increases
  • The cosine of x increases
  • The function sin²(x) + cos²(x) remains constant
