For what values of the following expressions are true: |a−5|=5−a

Whenever a-5<0 or a<5

Step-by-step explanation:

So if you have an absolute value, that turns into two equations. The one we care about is -(a-5)=5-a. After distributing the negative through the left side of the equation, you'll get that 5-a=5-a, which is an identity. But you can only say that abs(a-5)=5-a when a-5<0. To see a visual representation of this, graph both sides of the equation in desmos.

hi there!

first we need to find out how much they are adding to each number to make the next number.

ex: 4 + 4 = 8, 8 + 8 = 16, and so on.

so continuing with 32,

32 + 32 = 64

64 + 64 = 128

128 + 128 = 256

256 + 256 = 512

4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512

the 8th term of the sequence will be 512

hope this ! ~
