Choose the two equations you would use to solve the absolute value equation below. then solve the two equations.
|x + 5| = 55
a. x + 5 = 55 and x + 5 = -55; {50, -60}
b. x + 5 = 55 and x + 5 = -55; {-50, -60}
c. x - 5 = 55 and x + 5 = -55; {60, -60}
d. x - 5 = 55 and x + 5 = -55; {-60, -60}

A

Step-by-step explanation:

option 1 is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

y varies inversely with x and constant of variation is 4

the equation will be:

y = k/x

where k =4 so,

y = 4/x

if we put values of x of option 1 in the above equation and find values of y

y = 4/-2 => y =-2

y = 4/-1 => y = -4

y = 4/1 => y = 4

y = 4/2 => y =2

so, all the values of x and y are correct.

if we put values of x given in other options and find value of y we cannot find whole table satisfying the equation.

hence option 1 is correct.
