these two bars | | mean <u>absolute value</u>
here's how to find x
| x - 7| = 2
first apply the absolute rule
x - 7 = 2 x - 7 = -2
in both equations add 7 on both sides
x - 7 + 7 = 2 + 7 x - 7 + 7 = -2 + 7
then simplify the expressions
x = 9 x = 5
now combine these two solutions to get your answer
x = 9 or x = 5
hopefully my explanation helps

Mixed Number: 1 5/9
Answer:
a) y = (x+2)/3
b) 5
Step-by-step explanation:
f^-1(x) means "f inverse of x". To find the inverse, we simply:
a ) f(x) = 3x -2
y = 3x - 2 --> because f(x) is the same thing as y
x = 3y - 2 --> to find the inverse, we simply just switch x and y
x + 2 = 3y
y = (x+2)/3
b) f^-1(13)
f^-1(13) = [((13) + 2)/3]
f^-1(13) = (15)/3
f^-1(13) = 5
Answer:
0
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of the line is zero because it is a horizontal line with no rise or fall.
