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.

We are tasked to find the stock price on Thursday from the given information. Here, we need to find the stock of each day from the price increase or decrease. If the price increases, we add to the previous day’s price and subtract if the price decreases.
Monday’s stock price=$65.50
Tuesday’s stock price is Monday’s plus $1.50=65.50+1.50=$67.00
Wednesday’s stock price went down by $2.57 from Tuesday’s=67.00-2.57=$64.43
Thursday’s stock price went up by $2.25 from Wednesday’s =64.43+2.25=$66.68
From the above evaluation, the stock price on Thursday was $66.68

Explanation
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.
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 D
Explanation
The median of a data set is a number that falls in the middle of the data set. To find the median, the numbers in the data set are arranged from the smallest to the largest. In the given data set, the organized arrangement is:
-5, -1, 0, 3, 9
There are five elements in the data set, and the median falls in the third position from either side. Thus, 0 falls in the third position.
