Solve |2x-9|+4 7.

hero (hero):

Where's the mathematical symbol that tells what kind of mathematical sentence it is?

hero (hero):

I don't know if it is an equality or an inequality.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is absolute value, take the [] off and you have 2x-9+47

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Part 1: Change 3x + 2y = 10 to slope-intercept form. You must show all work. (2 points) Part 2: State the slope and y-intercept (2 points)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2x+38

OpenStudy (anonymous):

because you add the -9 and the 47 and bring down the 2x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and it was < or equal to 7

hero (hero):

^and that confirms that it was a mathematical sentence not an expression.

i need help on this one u guys!

hero (hero):

|2x-9|+4 ≤ 7

hero (hero):

Subtract 4 from both sides. Let me know what you get afterwards.

hero (hero):

@Tamatchi123

OpenStudy (anonymous):

did you get it or you need help?

hero (hero):

@KE8717504 , let me help her please.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i allready finished the answer i got <= 7 and the other one is >=-1

hero (hero):

You didn't show your work @Tamatchi123

hero (hero):

And I'm guessing you probably didn't check your work either.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok I appreciate all the medals i can get so if you think i did a great job i would appreciate it

hero (hero):

|2x-9|+4 ≤ 7 |2x-9| ≤ 7 - 4 |2x-9| ≤ 3 -3 ≤ 2x-9 ≤ 3 -3+9 ≤ 2x ≤ 3 + 9 6 ≤ 2x ≤ 12 6/2 ≤ x ≤ 12/2 3 ≤ x ≤ 6

hero (hero):

The important thing to remember here is that |x-a|≤ b can be re-written as -b ≤x-a ≤b

hero (hero):

In English it means that the absolute value of a number less than or equal to b: |x-a|≤b means that same as a number between negative and positive b: -b ≤ x -a ≤ b
