Question

PLEASE HELP ASAP!! I NEED THE ANSWER

Answer 1

Answer:

D. {-2,12}

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to the equation with the answer being both negative and positive because it is absolute value...

c-5= 7                       c-5= -7

add 5 to both sides on both equations

c-5= 7       and        c-5= -7

 +5                            +5

c= 12        and           c= -2

This probably doesnt help that much i tried.... :)

Answer 2

Answer:

$\huge \: x = \{ - 2, 12 \}$

Step-by-step explanation:

to understand this

you need to know about:

• absolute value
• absolute value equation
• PEMDAS

tips and formulas:

• $|u| = a < = > u = ±a \: (always)$

given:

• $|c - 5| = 7$

to find:

• $c$

let's solve:

$step - 1 : define$

$|c - 5| = 7$

$step - 2 : \\ rewrite \: the \: absolute \: value\: equation \: as \: two \: separare \: equation$

$c - 5 = 7 \\ c - 5 = - 7$

$step - 3 : simplify$

$c = 12 \\ c = - 2$

$\huge \: x = \{ - 2, 12 \}$
