Question

Solve the equation there’s no solution right no solution

J/5+1=-4

Answer 1

Answer: J = -15 or 15

Explanation:

|j|

5

+1=4

1

5

(|j|)+1=4

Step 1: Add -1 to both sides.

1

5

(|j|)+1+−1=4+−1

1

5

(|j|)=3

Step 2: Divide both sides by 1/5.

1

5

(|j|)

1

5

=

3

1

5

|j|=15

Step 3: Solve Absolute Value.

|j|=15

We know eitherj=15orj=−15

j=15(Possibility 1)

j=−15(Possibility 2)

Answer:

j=15 or j=−15

Answer 2

hmmmm, there is
`\bf \cfrac{j}{5}+1=4\implies \cfrac{j}{5}=3\implies j=15`
