I would pick C sorry if it’s wrong
Answer:
x < -8
Step-by-step explanation:
3 - (2x - 5) < -4(x + 2)
-2x + 8 < -4x - 8
-2x < -4x - 16
2x < -16
x < -8
Best of Luck!
Answer:
x = - 2, x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given f(x) = 18 we require to solve
3 | x - 2 | + 6 = 18 ( subtract 6 from both sides )
3 | x - 2 | = 12 ( divide both sides by 3 )
| x - 2 | = 4
The absolute value function always returns a positive value, however, the expression inside can be positive or negative, thus
x - 2 = 4 ( add 2 to both sides )
x = 6
OR
- (x - 2) = 4
- x + 2 = 4 ( subtract 2 from both sides )
- x = 2 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )
x = - 2
As a check substitute these values into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side then they are the solutions
x = 6 → 3|6 - 2| + 6 = 3|4| + 6 = 3(4) + 6 = 12 + 6 = 18 ← True
x = - 2 → 3|- 2 - 2| + 6 = 3|-4| + 6 = 3(4) + 6 = 12 + 6 = 18 ← True
Hence solutions are x = - 2, x = 6
Answer : x = 0,5,-2
Step 1 : factor left side
x(x+2)(x-5)=0
step 2 : set factors equal to 0
x=0, x+2=0 or, x-5=0
2 x $1150 + $1049.34 = $3,349.34.
