I teach middle and high school math classes at Peak Virtual Academy.
Peak is a blended school.
Rationalize the denominator and write each fraction in simplest form. All variables represent positive numbers.$\frac{1}{1+\sqrt{3}}$
Explain why the equation $x+|-2|=5$ is not an absolute-value equation.
Tell how many solutions the equation has.$$|x|=17$$
Tell how many solutions the equation has.$$|x-1|=-3$$
Write the two linear equations you would use to solve the absolute-value equation.$$|x-4|=10$$
Write the two linear equations you would use to solve the absolute-value equation.$$|3 x+2|-1=5$$
