Question

What are the solutions of the equation? Graph and check the solutions.

| x | + 10 = 1

Answer 1

there are two solutions of this equation

Answer 2

what are they

Answer 3

do you know how to open modulus?

Answer 4

x = 9 or x = –9 i think its this

Answer 5

and no

Answer 6

yes it is.

Answer 7

i had it right and i change cause i second guess myself

Answer 8

now can you plot the graph?

Answer 9

yes and thanks for helping me

Answer 10

welcome friend.

Answer 11

wait...
| x | + 10 = 1 has no solution because this would mean
| x | = -9.
there is no x that will make this true.

Answer 12

@dplnc take it as a function and plot it. like this.

Answer 13

graph of |x| is and in the question it is +9 this means graph is shifted 9 units up.

Answer 14

the graph of f(x) = |x| + 9 is that graph you posted.

but the question is: "what is the solution to | x | + 10 = 1"

Answer 15

yeah.. and there will be two solution to this equation as i said above.
when we open mod then we write it with - and + so function will give two solution but for both of them y will always be positive . as it is a piecewise function (|x|)

Answer 16

notice the graph of y=|x|+10 and y=1 are shown....
finding the solution to | x | + 10 = 1 means where do these two graphs intersect.
they don't.... so no solution...
