Given:
3,6,9,12,15,18...
We need to find the difference.
The difference between 3 and 6 is 6-3 =3.
The difference between 6 and 9 is 9-6 =3.
The difference between 9 and 12 is 12-9 =3.
The difference between 12 and 15 is 15-12 =3.
The difference between 15 and 18 is 18-15 =3.
Recall that linear have equal differences.
We get an equal difference between each value.
The form of the equation is
Hence the given is linear.
Answer:
x =
Step-by-step explanation:
The absolute value always returns a positive value but the expression inside can be positive or negative, that is
x + 4 = 3x - 5 ( subtract 3x from both sides )
- 2x + 4 = - 5 (subtract 4 from both sides )
- 2x = - 9 ( divide both sides by - 2 )
x =
OR
-(x + 4) = 3x - 5
- x - 4 = 3x - 5 ( subtract 3x from both sides )
- 4x - 4 = - 5 ( add 4 to both sides )
- 4x = - 1 ( divide both sides by - 4 )
x =
As a check
Substitute these values into the equation and if both sides are equal then they are the solutions
| + 4 | = |
| =
right side = - 5 =
left side = right side , thus x = is a solution
check second solution
| + 4 | = |
| =
right side = - 5 = -
right side ≠ left sides, hence not a solution
