Question 1 Solve the absolute value equation |x| − 2 = 5 to find the distance Mary can walk forward, x, in 5 seconds. Group of answer choices x = 7 m and x = −7 m x = −7 m and x = 3 m x = −3 m and x = 7 m x = 3 m and x = −3 m

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

The absolute value equation is

[tex]|x|-2=5[/tex]

To find:

The distance Mary can walk forward, i.e., x.

Solution:

We have,

[tex]|x|-2=5[/tex]

Add 2 on both sides.

[tex]|x|-2+2=5+2[/tex]

[tex]|x|=7[/tex]

[tex]x=\pm 7[/tex]

[tex]x=-7[/tex] and [tex]x=7[/tex]

Here, negative sign represents the distance Mary can walk reverse direction.

Therefore, the correct option is A.

David purchased 1.5 pounds of apples that cost 3.60 per pound. If he gave the cashier a twenty dollar bill, how much change would he receive?

Answers

He would receive $14.6 reason: 1.5x3.6=5.4,,,,20-5.4=14.6
He would get 14.60 back.

1 pound = 3.60
.5 pound = 1.80
1.5 pounds = 5.40
So then you subtract 5.40 from 20
20 - 5.40 = 14.60

Answers

Answer:

50 batches

Step-by-step explanation:

A bag of flour = 5 pounds of flour

A batch of cookies = 0.10 pounds of flour

How many batches can be made with the 5-pound bag?

Batch of cookies in 5 pounds of flour = Total pounds of flour / flour needed per batch of cookies

= 5 pounds / 0.10 pounds

= 50 batches of cookies

50 batches of cookies can be made with 5 pounds of flour

Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable

Answer:

your answer is incorrect

Step-by-step explanation:

0.2 times (x+3) = 0.2x + .6

4(2x-3) = 4 x 2x + 4 x -3 = 4 x 2x + -7 = 6x + -7

0.2x + .6 - 6x + -7 = -5.8x + -7

because you cannot combine terms that are not alike, then your final answer would have to be -5.8x + -7 because you did not give us what x is equal to.

what is the soution to following equation: 1/2(x-10)=3/4(x+8)​

Answers

Answer: x = -44

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2(x - 10) = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] (x+8)    Apply the distributive property

1/2x  - 5 = 3/4x + 6       Add 5 to both sides

         +5              +5

  1/2x = 3/4x + 11    Subtract 3/4x  from both sides

-3/4x       -3/4x

    -1/4x = 11       Divide both sides by -1/4

     x =   -44

2. Tom makes $50 a day, 5 days a week. If his rent every four weeks was $500, what is
his overall net profit?

Answers

His overall net profit would be $500 dollars because every two weeks he makes $500 so over 4 weeks he would make $1000, but lose $500 to rent.

Answer:

$500 net profit in 4 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

+$50 a day, 5 days a week, -$500 every 4 weeks

1. solve for initial profit in 4 weeks

5 profitable day*4 weeks= 20 days Tom makes a profit

20 days*$50= $1000 in 20 days

2. subtract rent from initial profit

1000-500= $500

What is the solution of 6x= 15

Answers

Answer:

2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

When a variable is next to a number (coefficient) it means you need to multiply. In this equation 6x are next to eachother.

Because we don't know what x is, we have to work backwards.

The opposite of multiplying is dividing, so here we can do...

15/6  and that equals 2.5

To check you replace x with 2.5 like so,

6(2.5)= 15 and it is true!

Hope this helps and have a great day!

What is the modulus function?

The modulus function is the function which gives the magnitude or absolute of the number in the variable.

|x|=x if x>0

    -x if x<0

     0 if x=0

So according to question,

|7x+21|=14x

case-1: if 7x+21>0

⇒7x>-21

⇒x>-21/7

⇒x>-3

if 7x+21>0 , Using the modulus function property

|7x+21|=14x

⇒7x+21=14x

⇒14x-7x=21

⇒7x=21

⇒x=21/7

⇒x=3 which is also x>-3

x=3 is the solution

case-2:  if 7x+21<0

⇒7x<-21

⇒x<-21/7

⇒x<-3

if 7x+21<0 ,  Using the modulus function property

|7x+21|=14x

⇒-(7x+21)=14x

⇒-7x-21=14x

⇒14x+7x=-21

⇒21x=-21

⇒x=-21/21

⇒x=-1 for which x<-3 is not true

x=-1 is an extraneous solution.

Therefore the solution is 3 and the extraneous solution is -1.
