Given
[tex]|5-6x|-12=0[/tex]To solve this equation for both possible values of x, you have to separate it into two calculations.
1) One will be for the case that the values inside the absolute term are multiplied by "+1":
[tex]\begin{gathered} 1\cdot(5-6x)-12=0 \\ 5-6x-12=0 \\ -6x+5-12=0 \\ -6x-7=0 \\ -6x=7 \\ -\frac{6x}{-6}=\frac{7}{-6} \\ x=-\frac{7}{6} \end{gathered}[/tex]The first value of x is -7/6
2) The second will be the case that the absolute values are negative, that is as if they are multiplied by -1
[tex]\begin{gathered} (-1)(5-6x)-12=0 \\ -5+6x-12=0 \\ 6x-5-12=0 \\ 6x-17=0 \\ 6x=17 \\ \frac{6x}{6}=\frac{17}{6} \\ x=\frac{17}{6} \end{gathered}[/tex]The second value of x is 17/6
So for this absolute equation, the possible values of x are -7/6 and 17/6
Justin earns a base salary of $1500 per month at
the jewelry shop. He also earns a 3% commission
on all sales. If Just sold $82,975 worth of jewelry
last month, how much would he make for the
month including his base salary and commission?
The total salary earned by the Justin including the commission is $3959.25.
What exactly is the commission?A commission is extra money earned based on job performance.Members believe to be paid a specified amount of money depending on achievement marketed, sessions closed, recruits placed, and so on—when they agree to a commission-based position as well as commission framework (more by signing the agreement).For the given question;
The base salary of Justin is $1500.
The commission earned by Justin is 3%.
The jewelry of worth $82,975 last month.
Let x be the total commission earned.
Then,
3% of 82,975 = x
x = 3× 82,975 / 100
x = $2489.25
Total salary = base salary + commission
Total salary = $1500 + $2489.25
Total salary = $3959.25
Thus, the total salary earned by the Justin including the commission is $3959.25.

Determine the function of the price of a lawn mower in terms of the cost to manufacture the mower. What price will a customer pay for this mower if the manufacturer's cost was $230? Solve using composite functions
From the information provided, the lawn mower is sold at a price which is $75 over the cost of manufacture.
If the cost of manufacture is x, then we would have;
[tex]f(x)=x+75[/tex]Also, the store now sells the lawn mower for 140% of the price paid to the manufacturer. Therefore, we would have;
[tex]g(x)=f(x)1.4[/tex]Hence, if the manufacturer's cost is $230, the customer would be paying g(x). When the cost x is now given as 230, we wou;d have;

[tex](-\infty,\infty)[/tex]A cookie recipe calls for 3/4 of a cup of flour and makes 2dozen cookies. How many cookies can Julia make if she has 12cups of flour and wants to use it all
Given that 3/4 of a cup of flour is used to cook 2 dozen cookies,
[tex]\frac{3}{4}\text{ cup of flour}\equiv2\text{ dozen cookies}[/tex]Consider the conversion,
[tex]1\text{ dozen}=12\text{ units}[/tex]So it follows that,
[tex]\frac{3}{4}\text{ cup of flour}\equiv2\cdot12=24\text{ cookies}[/tex]Multiply both sides by 4/3 as follows,
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{3}{4}\cdot\frac{4}{3}\text{ cups of flour}\equiv24\cdot\frac{4}{3}\text{ cookies} \\ 1\text{ cup of flour}\equiv32\text{ cookies} \end{gathered}[/tex]So, 32 cookies can be cooked using 1 cup pf flour.
Given that Julia has 12 cups of flour, so the number of cookies that she can cook, is calculated as,

For each equation in the table, give the slope of the graph.
Answer:
1. undefined
2. 0
3. -6
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope-intercept form: y = mx + b
m = slope
b = y-intercept.
Since the equation x = -6 is a vertical line, the slope is undefined.
Since y = -6 is a horizontal line, the slope is 0.
The slope of y = -6x is -6. This is because it is the coefficient of the variable x.
Graph the function. Plot five points on the graph of the function as follows.
Find the slope of the lines (-3,-1) and (-6,-10)
m = rise/run = (-10 - (-1))/(-6 - (-3)) = -9/-3 = 3
the slope of the line is equal to 3.
Each of John’s notebook is 3/4 inches wide. If he has 36 inches of space remaining on his bookshelf, how many notebooks will fit? Write your answer in simplest form.
Given that:
- The width of each of John’s notebooks is:
[tex]\frac{3}{4}in[/tex]- The space remaining on his bookshelf is:
[tex]36in[/tex]Let be "x" the number of notebooks that will fit in John's bookshelf.
Knowing that:
[tex]\frac{3}{4}in=0.75in[/tex]You can set up the following proportion:
[tex]\frac{1}{0.75}=\frac{x}{36}[/tex]Now you have to solve for "x":

Louis had 6 different pies. Some of them were eating and we want to know how much pie there's left. First, we have the information that one apple pie was entirely gone. From this, we know there were 5 pies remaining.
[tex]6-1=5[/tex]Then, he also noticed the other apple pie had 3/4 gone. Which means that 1/4 of this second apple pie was leftover.
[tex]1-\frac{3}{4}=\frac{1}{4}[/tex]Applying this same logic, we can deduct all the slices that were eaten from the total amount of pie we had at first to get the leftovers.
[tex]\begin{gathered} 6-1-\frac{3}{4}-\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{8}-\frac{5}{8}-\frac{3}{4} \\ =5-\frac{1}{2}-\frac{6}{4}-\frac{6}{8} \\ =5-2-\frac{3}{4} \\ =3-\frac{3}{4} \\ =2+\frac{1}{4} \end{gathered}[/tex]What we've done in this last equation, was taking our first amount of pies (6), subtract the whole apple pie that was eaten (1), the three quarters that were eaten from the other apple pie (3/4) and the other eaten slices from the others.
Which means, the result of this calculation is our amount of leftover slices.
We still have 2 and a quarter pies.

1) for x = 1, there are different values of y. They include y = 0, 1, 3
for x = 3, y = 0, 1
This means that it is not a function
2) No value of x has more than one value of y. Thus, no input has more than one output. This means that it is a function
3) for x = 2, there are different values of y. They include y = 7, 1
This means that it is not a function
4) for x = 9, there are different values of y. They include y = - 3, 3
for x = 2, there are different values of y. They include y = - 2, 2
This means that it is not a function
