Your friend says that the absolute value equation | 3x + 8 |-9= -5 has no solution because the constant on the right side of the equation is negative. is your friend correct ? explain.

no, bescause -9 is outside of the absolute value symbols. So whatever is in the absolut value symbols will equal 4 or -4(absolute value symbols making it 4) then -9 will make it -5.

Step-by-step explanation:

c.   x=2.4cm

step-by-step explanation:

similar triangles are triangles which have the same shape but not the same size. this means their angle measures are equal but their side lengths are not instead they are proportional. to solve, we will set up a proportion and solve.

a proportion is two equal ratios set equal to each other. we form the ratios by finding corresponding sides (sides which match to each other on both triangles by their position). out ratios will be one side of the small triangle over the corresponding side on the big triangle as shown below:

.

to solve the proportion, we'll cross multiply by multiplying numerator with denominator across the equal sign.

15% chance.

step-by-step explanation:

3/10 times, the 5 year old will get a tablet. 5/10 times, the 13 yer old will get a tablet. multiply both fractions to get 15/100 times, both would have a tablet.
