4|3x - 1| + 1 = 8
4|3x - 1| = 8 - 1
4|3x - 1| = 7
|3x - 1| = 7/4
Now lets think, we have 3x - 1 in module, so either its 7/4 or -7/4, we will have 7/4 at the end because of it, so we may have 2 solutions in this case:
3x - 1 = 7/4
and
3x - 1 = -7/4
So let's see:
3x - 1 = 7/4
3x = 7/4 + 1
3x = 11/4
x = 11/12
3x - 1 = -7/4
3x = -7/4 + 1
3x = -3/4
x = -1/4
So we have two possible answers, x = 11/2 and x = -1/4
Answer: 8 1/2 is less than 9 1/2, 8 1/2< 9 1/2
Not sure I'm right but:
If the bar weighs 9.25 ounces and 65% of the bar is gold, you'd do 65% of 9.25. So the answer would be <span>65% of 9.25= 6.0125</span>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In y = mx + b form, the slope can be found in the m position and the y intercept can be found in the b position.
4x - 2y = -6
-2y = -4x- 6
y = (-4/-2)x -(6/-2)
y = 2x + 3....slope here is 2, and y int is 3
3x + y = 3
y = -3x + 3.....slope here is -3, and y int is 3
B. slopes are different, y intercepts are the same
