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.

Correct Answer is A
Explanation
we are asked to find the number of gallons a full tank can hold. A full tank is equivalent to 1.
Convert the mixed fraction into proper fraction as follows
(2frac{2}{5}=frac{left(2ast5 ight)+2}{5}=frac{10+2}{5}=frac{12}{5})
If we let x be the number of gallons in full tank, and setting up the proportion equation with the number of gallons on the numerator and fraction of tank on denominator as follows.
(frac{x gallons}{1 full tank}=frac{frac{12}{5} gallons}{frac{4}{7}full tank})
Cross-multiply to find the value of x.
(frac{x }{1 full tank}=frac{frac{12}{5} gallons}{frac{4}{7}full tank})
(x astfrac{4}{7}full tank=frac{12}{5} gallonsast1 full tank)
(x =frac{frac{12}{5} gallonsast1 full tank}{frac{4}{7}full tank}=frac{12}{5}divfrac{4}{7} gallons=frac{12}{5}astfrac{7}{4}gallons=frac{21}{5}gallons)
Converting 21/5 to a mixed fraction is 4 1/5. Thus, when the tank is full, it holds 4 1/5 gallons of water.
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
To convert millilitres (mL) to litres (L), we use the fact that:
1 L=1000 mL
So, to convert 2,500 mL to litres:
=2.5 L
Thus, the patient needs 2.5 litres of saline.
The correct answer is C. 2.5 L.
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
Here, we are required to find the unit of measuring mass. The SI unit of mass is kilogram but other derived units are grams, milligrams, microgram and more.
A kilogram is a large quantity for measuring heavier objects but grams can used to measure small and light objects such as the mass of the mobile phone. Therefore, gram is the appropriate unit for measuring weight of a mobile phone.
Correct Answer is B
Explanation

A scatter plot used to show the correlation between two variables.
A pie chart is used to show the proportion of the given information in circle, with each section of a circle representing a given fraction of a whole.
From the given information, a pie chart is an appropriate tool show the frequency of the students choosing their favorite color.
Correct Answer is B
Explanation
The number of cups of milk to make a bigger batch, we proceed as follows:
First convert the mixed number 1 2/5 as

Then, we let the unknown number of cups of milk to be x and we set a proportion equation with number cups of floor as numerator and cups of milk as denominator

Find the value of x by cross-products



2 as a fraction is 2/1 which is then used to find the product of the numerator as follows.

Per means division. The above equation becomes

When dividing fractions, we multiply the first fraction with the reciprocal of the second. The reciprocal of 2/9 is 9/2. Thus

The numbers of cups of milk required is 63/5, which when converted to mixed fraction becomes 12 3/5.
Correct Answer is D
Explanation
Percentages are fractions with denominator equal to 100. To convert a percent to decimal form, divide the value by 100.

The decimal form of 98.2% is 0.982.
Correct Answer is D
Explanation
To find the greatest number from the given options, convert the decimal numbers into fractions.
6.98 becomes 698/100
9.2 becomes 92/10
The least common denominator for the denominators of 7, 100 and 10 is 700. Now we can multiply each fraction with 700 as follows:
3/7*700=300
698/100*700=4886
10/7*700=1000
92/10*700=6440
In order from the smallest to largest, we organize the number set as follows:
3/7, 10/7, 6.98, 9.2.
Thus, 9.2 is the greatest of all.
Correct Answer is B
Explanation
The volume V of a rectangular box can be calculated using the formula:
V=length×width×height
Given:
- Length = 8 metres
- Width = 5 metres
- Height = 3 metres
Now, calculate the volume:
V=8 m×5 m×3 m=120 m3
Thus, the volume of the box is 120 cubic metres.
The correct answer is B. 120 m³.
Correct Answer is A
Explanation
Let the unknown length of the x. The resulting triangle is shown below.

We use the Pythagoras theorem as follows to find the unknown value of x as:


Thus, the value of unknown side of the triangle is 21.8 feet.
Correct Answer is A
Explanation
Given the equation A(f)=92+2f
To find the value of A(f), we need to manipulate the value of f. In this case, f is the independent variable while A(f) is the dependent variable.
