What does this mean?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

f(x) = |x| represents the modulus function or absolute value function. It gives us the distance between any point and the origin. Since distance can never be negative so we always consider its positive value only. You can simply multiply the given value with ‘-1’(if the given value is negative).

(1 pt) A delivery truck made 8 stops in one neighborhood. By stop 5, there were 11 packages delivered. How many stops did it take to have 5 packages delivered? A. 12 B. 8 C. 3 D. 2

Answers

First, divide 11/5 because to deliver 11 packages, you go 5 stops. To deliver 5 packages, you go x number of stops. So, 11/5=5/x. Then find a common denominator. So, 11x/5x=25/5x. Then solve the numerators of 11x=25. So, divide 25/11 to isolate x. This gives you 2.27. This means the answer is C) 3 because, although the answer is closer to 2, and by stop 3, there will be more than 5, but at stop 2, it will be less than 5. Hope this helps! :D

1. y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
     y - (-7) = 6(x - (-8))
       y + 7 = 6(x + 8)
   y + 7 = 6(x) + 6(8)
   y + 7 = 6x + 48
      - 7 -   7
   y = 6x + 41

2. y₂ - y₁ = -8 - (-3) = -8 + 3 = -5 = -1²/₃
    x₂ - x₁ -1 - (-4) -1 + 4 3

     2x - 3y = 11

   -3y = 3
      -3    -3

Pls explain me how to solve this

|f(x)| is equivalent to 2 equations
f(x) when f(x) >= 0 OR -f(x) when f(x)< 0

so |x-11| > 4 is equivalent to
x-11 > 4 when x-11 >= 0 OR
-(x-11) > 4 when x-11 < 0

rearrange
x-11 > 4 when x-11 >= 0 we get
x > 15 when x >= 11 ... means x > 11

-(x-11) > 4 when x-11 < 0 we get
x < 7 when x < 11 ...means x < 7

so we have. x < 7 OR x > 11 for this inequality which is not the correct answer

... now... what is solution for |x-11| < 4
you can try to work as above and should come up with the solution just 'the opposite' which is x > 7 OR x < 11 [ 7 < x < 11 ]

then you work for c) and could work or guess for d)

Chad washes windows after school to make some extra money. He charges $5.50 to wash each window. If the customer provides the supplies, Chad deducts $3.25 from the total cost. One customer paid a total of $27.50 and did not provide supplies. Which equation could be used to find the number of windows, w, that Chad washed for this customer? 5.5w + 3.25 = 27.5 5.5w - 3.25 = 27.5 5.5w = 27.5 5.5 - 3.25w = 27.5
