For all real numbers a and b, a0, the equation |ax + b| = 0 will have one solution. a. always c. never b. sometimes
hi everybody . what a0 means
what is the name of this equation?
absolute , right?
@david334
a cant equal 0
ok. sorry, @david334 : you mean a is not = 0
you mean it cant equal zero?
yes
my answer is a). What do you think, Chooch?
yeah there has to be a solotion for this equation
Thanks
@hoa do u know what equation this is called?
to be honest, NO. can you tell me
no i was asking you lol thats why theres a ? at the end of the sentence:] lol
ok, I explain, with ANY a and b you have a "x" such that a*x = -b . if you choose a = 1 and b = 1, you have x =-1. if you choose a =2 , b =7, you have x = -7/2.... and so on. whatever a,b you choose, you always have a x satisfy each pair of a, b. therefore, it always has one solution a time. is it clear?
