Which of the following is the value of x in the equation below
x= -4 or x=2
x= -2 or x=3
x =-2 or x= 4
x= -2 or x= 1
Correct Answer : B
we find the value of x by applying the absolute conditions to the given equation.
First, add 2 to both sides of equation
The absolute conditions are:
If , a>0, then u=a or u=-a
In this case a=10, which is greater 0.
The first condition becomes
Add 2 to both sides of the equation
Divide both sides by 4
The second condition becomes
Add 2 to both sides of the equation
Divide both sides by 4
Then, the value of x is 3 or -2.

To find the area of the room, we form an equation of find an equation relating the length and width of the rectangle. If we let the width of the room to be w, then
Width of the rectangle= w
Length of rectangle=(w+5)
Area of the rectangle, A= Length*width=(w+5)*w
A=w(w+5)
Thus, the area of the rectangular room is w(w+5).

We are asked to find the number of cups of flour that will be used to make 90 cookies.
First, we convert 2 ¼ into improper fraction as:
Letting x to be the number of cups of flour, we set up a proportion equation with number of cookies on numerator and number of cups of flour on the denominator becomes:
Solve the value of x by cross-products
Dividing both sides by 60, the above equation result to
Thus, the number of cups of flour needed to make 90 cookies is 81/16 cups, which is equal to 5 1/16 cups.

To find the cheapest option, we determine how much the consumer will spend in each option given above:
1 two-24 packs of Orange and 2 pack of Cream Soda=1($10)+2($6)=$10+$12=$22
3 one 24-pack of Orange=3($8)=$24
1 pack of Root Beer and 3 packs of Cream Soda=1($11)+3($6)=$11+$18=$29
4 packs of cream Soda=4($6)=$24
The cheapest option is spending $22 and the most expensive one is $29. Thus, the consumer should consider buying 1 two-24 packs of Orange and 2 packs of Cream Soda.

In this task, we use the relation from the given scenario to compare the number of dimes to quarters.
If we let p be number of pennies in the bottle. Then,
Number of quarters in the bottle = 2p
Number of nickels in the bottle = 3p
Number of dimes in the bottle =6(3p)=18p
Now relating dimes to quarters, we have
Thus, there are 9 times as many dimes as quarters in the box.

Explanation
We follow the order of operations to solve the given expression. The order of operations is PEMDAS:
- Parentheses
- Exponents
- Multiplication and Division (in order from left to right)
- Addition and Subtraction (in order from left to right)
First, we start with the numerator and solve it as follows
[3(6+5*4)]
We start with multiplication in parenthesis, 5*4=20. The expression becomes
[3(6+20)]
Then, we conduct the addition in parenthesis 6+20=26. Then, the expression becomes
[3(26)]=3*26=78
Now, we solve for denominator, which is 26/2=13.
Thus, the expression is reduced into
The expression reduces into 6.
