20 is the answer for 4 times 5
Answer: -2
Step-by-step explanation: As our first step, we simplify inside the absolute value. 7 - 9 is -2 so we have -|-2|.
A common mistake at this point in the problem is to change the minus a negative to plus a positive but don't fall into this trap.
We must ignore the negative outside the absolute value until our very last step in this problem.
So we take the absolute value of -2 which is 2 and we have -(2) or -2.
Notice that I used parentheses around the 2 as it comes out of the absolute value.
Answer: x=7/2, x=-3
Step-by-step explanation:
First lets do look at it without the absolute value marks
4x-1=13
4x=14
x=7/2
Now lets do the same but assume 13 is negative,
4x-1=-13
4x=-12
x=-3
Answer:
(x-4)(x-4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Because the factors of 16 that add up to -8 can be -4 and -4.
Let's plug it in...
<em>16 - 32 + 16 = 0
It works!!!</em>
ANswer is (x-4)(x-4)
