hi can anyone solve my math problem

Answers

Answer:

The solutions to this equation are x = -8/9 and x = -16/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplified Equation

We have this equation here:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{3}|x-4|=\frac{2}{3} x+2|x+\frac{6}{3} |[/tex]

First, let's simplify the right sight of the equation by simplifying 6/3 to 2.

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{3}|x-4|=\frac{2}{3} x+2|x+2 |[/tex]

Multiply both sides of the equation by 3 in order to get rid of the fractions.

[tex]|x-4|=2x+6|x+2|[/tex]

Move the terms on either side of the equation to set them equal to 0.

[tex]|x-4|-2x-6|x+2|=0[/tex]

Now, we can split this equation up into 4 possible cases. In each case, we make the absolute values negative or positive.

Case #1 (first absolute value: positive; second absolute value: positive)

[tex](x-4)-2x-6(x+2)=0[/tex]

Simplify this equation by distributing -6 inside the parentheses.

[tex]x-4-2x-6x-12=0[/tex]

Combine like terms.

[tex]-7x-16=0[/tex]

Add 16 to both sides of the equation and divide by -7.

[tex]\displaystyle \boxed{x=-\frac{16}{7}}[/tex]

Case #2 (first absolute value: negative; second absolute value: positive)

[tex]-(x-4)-2x-6(x+2)=0[/tex]

Distribute the negative sign and -6 inside of their respective parentheses.

[tex]-x+4-2x-6x-12=0[/tex]

Combine like terms.

[tex]-9x-8=0[/tex]

Add 8 to both sides of the equation and divide by -9.

[tex]\displaystyle \boxed{x=-\frac{8}{9}}[/tex]

Case #3 (first absolute value: positive; second absolute value: negative)

[tex](x-4)-2x-6[-(x+2)]=0[/tex]

Distribute the negative sign inside the parentheses first.

[tex]x-4-2x-6(-x-2)=0[/tex]

Now, distribute -6 inside the parentheses.

[tex]x-4-2x+6x+12=0[/tex]

Combine like terms.

[tex]5x+8=0[/tex]

Subtract 8 from both sides of the equation and divide by 5.

[tex]\displaystyle \boxed{ x=-\frac{8}{5}}[/tex]

Case #4 (first absolute value: negative; second absolute value: negative)

[tex]-(x-4)-2x-6[-(x+2)]=0[/tex]

Distribute the negative signs inside the parentheses first.

[tex]-x+4-2x-6(-x-2)=0[/tex]

Distribute -6 inside the parentheses.

[tex]-x+4-2x+6x+12=0[/tex]

Combine like terms.

[tex]3x+16=0[/tex]

Subtract 16 from both sides of the equation and divide by 3.

[tex]\displaystyle \boxed{x=-\frac{16}{3}}[/tex]

Extraneous Solutions

Whenever we solve problems with absolute values, we will always need to check for extraneous solutions.

Definition: These are solutions that may come up while solving but do not actually fit in the domain of the original problem.

Checking for these is tedious, but it will help eliminate wrong answers, so let's plug every "solution" for x that we found back into the original equation.

1) x = -16/7

Substitute this value back into the original equation.

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{3}|(-\frac{16}{7}) -4|=\frac{2}{3} (-\frac{16}{7}) +2|(-\frac{16}{7}) +\frac{6}{3} |[/tex]

If we do all the calculations correctly, we will get:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{44}{21} =-\frac{20}{21}[/tex]

Since this equation is NOT true, this means that x = -16/7 is NOT A SOLUTION.

2) x = -8/9

Substitute this value back into the original equation.

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{3}|(-\frac{8}{9}) -4|=\frac{2}{3} (-\frac{8}{9}) +2|(-\frac{8}{9}) +\frac{6}{3} |[/tex]

If we do all the calculations correctly, we will get:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{44}{27} =\frac{44}{27}[/tex]

Since this equation IS true, this means that x = -8/9 IS A SOLUTION.

3) x = -8/5

Substitute this value back into the original equation.

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{3}|(-\frac{8}{5}) -4|=\frac{2}{3} (-\frac{8}{5}) +2|(-\frac{8}{5}) +\frac{6}{3} |[/tex]

If we do all the calculations correctly, we will get:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{28}{15} =-\frac{4}{15}[/tex]

Since this equation is NOT true, this means that x = -8/5 is NOT A SOLUTION.

4) x = -16/3

Substitute this value back into the original equation.

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{3}|(-\frac{16}{3}) -4|=\frac{2}{3} (-\frac{16}{3}) +2|(-\frac{16}{3}) +\frac{6}{3} |[/tex]

If we do all the calculations correctly, we will get:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{28}{9} =\frac{28}{9}[/tex]

Since this equation IS true, this means that x = -16/3 IS A SOLUTION.

Final Answer

The two true solutions of the double absolute value equation, shown above, are:

[tex]\displaystyle \boxed{-\frac{8}{9} } \ \ \& \ \ \boxed{-\frac{16}{3}}[/tex]

Answer:

  x = -16/3 or -8/9

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation can be rewritten as a piecewise linear function with two breakpoints, or three domain regions. Each breakpoint is at the value of x where the argument of the absolute value function is zero: at x=4 and x=-2.

For each absolute value, we have ...

  |q| = -q   for q < 0

  |q| = q   for q ≥ 0

Then the three parts of the domain are ...

x < -2 . . . . . . . . where |x +2| has its vertex-2 ≤ x < 4 . . . . . between the vertices4 ≤ x . . . . . . . . . where |x -4| has its vertex

__

Subtracting the right side, the equation becomes ...

  1/3|x -4| -2/3x -2|x +2| = 0

Then the three piecewise functions are ...

x < -2

Both absolute value arguments are negated.

  1/3(-(x -4)) -2/3x -2(-(x +2)) = 0

  x(-1/3 -2/3 +2) +4/3 +4 = 0 . . . . . collect terms

  x +5 1/3 = 0 . . . . . . . simplify

  x = -5 1/3 . . . . . . . . . subtract 5 1/3. This result is in the domain

__

-2 ≤ x < 4

Only the argument of |x -4| is negated.

  1/3(-(x -4)) -2/3x -2(x +2) = 0

  x(-1/3 -2/3 -2) +4/3 -4 = 0 . . . . collect terms

  -3x -8/3 = 0 . . . . . . . simplify

  -3x = 8/3 . . . . . . . add 8/3

  x = -8/9 . . . . . divide by -3. This result is in the domain

__

4 ≤ x

Neither absolute value function argument is negated.

  1/3(x -4) -2/3x -2(x +2) = 0

  x(1/3 -2/3 -2) -4/3 -4 = 0 . . . . . collect terms

  -7/3x -8/3 = 0 . . . . . . . . . simplify

  -7/3x = 8/3 . . . . . . . . add 8/3

  x = -8/7 . . . . . . . . . divide by -7/3. This result is not in the domain.

There is no solution in this region.

__

The solutions are ...

x = -5 1/3x = -8/9

What is vertical stretch?

In mathematics, a vertical stretch is a transformation of a function that changes the distance between the function's graph and the x-axis without changing its shape.

A vertical stretch multiplies all the y-coordinates of a function's graph by a constant factor greater than 1. This causes the graph to be stretched vertically and move further away from the x-axis.

For example, if we have a function f(x) = x^2, a vertical stretch by a factor of 3 would result in the function g(x) = 3x^2.

The graph of g(x) would be the same as that of f(x), but stretched vertically by a factor of 3.

A frame around a rectangular family portrait has a perimeter of 96 inches. The length of the frame is 6 inches less than
twice the width. Find the length and width of the frame.
Width of the frame is
inches
Length of the frame is
inches

Answers

The length is 30 inches.

How to get the length of the frame?

For a frame of length L and width W, the perimeter is:

P = 2*(L + W).

Here we know that:

P = 96 in

L = 2*W - 6in

Replacing that we get:

96in = 2*( (2*W - 6 in) + W)

Now we can solve that equation for W:

96in = 2*(3W - 6in)

96in/2 + 6in = 3W = 54in

W = (54in)/3 = 18in

The width is 18 inches, then:

L = 2*W - 6in = 2*(18 in) - 6in = 30in

The length is 30 inches.

What is an area?

The area of a 2D form is the amount of space within its perimeter. It is measured in square units such as cm², m², and so on. To find the area of a square formula or another quadrilateral, multiply its length by its width.

The area of the pizza = Area of semi-circle + Area of Rectangle

                                   = (π/2)r² + (d×h)

                                   = [(π/2)×4²] + (8×5)

                                   = 25.1327 in² + 40 in²

                                   = 65.1327 in²
