Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The absolute value function always gives a positive value, however the expression inside can be positive or negative, that is

0.5x + 1 = 5 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

0.5x = 4 ( divide both sides by 0.5 )

x = 8

OR

- (0.5x + 1) = 5

- 0.5x - 1 = 5 ( add 1 to both sides )

- 0.5x = 6 ( divide both sides by - 0.5 )

x = - 12

There are 2 solutions to the equation

x = 8 or x = - 12

PLEASE HELP ME I NEED HELP RIGHT AWAY!!!
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

There are 40 books total

Step-by-step explanation:

you need to set a proportion

The first fraction is 55/100 it's over 100 because it's percent

the other fraction is 22/x the 22 is out of a total number so that's why it's on top and x because you don't know the total number of books

then you multiply diagonally

55×x= 22×100

55x=2,200

Then you solve it like a regular equation by dividing both sides by 55

x=40

Tony Owens a special pet store that sells only snacks and elephants currently he has a total of 11 snacks and elephants in stock
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:  There are 8 snake and 3 elephants.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x= Number of snakes

y= Number of elephants

We know that , snake has no legs elephant has 4 legs.

Then, Total animals = x+y=11  (i)

Total legs = 4y = 12

⇒ y=3   .. (ii)[divide both sides by 4]

Substitute value of y from (ii) in (i) , we get

x+3=11\Rightarrow\ x=8

Hence, there are 8 snake and 3 elephants.

Talja [164]

Answer:

Four less than an unknown value E) y-4

Quotient of a variable and four B) \frac{z}{4}

Some number to the power of four A) a^4

Four times an unknown value D) 4x

Four more than some number C) b+4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's analyze each statement separately:

- Four less than an unknown value --> this means that we have to subtract 4 to an unknown value. Calling y the unknown value, it means we have to write

y-4

- Quotient of a variable and four --> this means we have to divide a variable by 4. Calling z the unknown variabl, it means we have to write

\frac{z}{4}

- Some number to the power of four --> this means that we have to write the power of a number, in the form a^m, where m in this case is equal to 4. Calling a the unknown number, it means we have to write

a^4

- Four times an unknown value --> this means that we have to multiply an unknown value by 4. Calling x our unknown values, we have to write

4x

- Four more than some number --> this means we have to add 4 to an unknown number. Calling b the unknown number, it means we have to write

b+4
