An equation with absolute values instead of simple variables has twice as many solutions as an otherwise identical equation with simple variables, because every absolute value has both a negative and a positive counterpart.

How many solutions should you have when solving absolute value equation when possible?

When solving an absolute value equation, you can typically have two solutions, one for each case where the expression inside the absolute value can be either positive or negative. For example, the equation |x| = a has the solutions x = a and x = -a, assuming a is non-negative. However, if the equation results in a negative value inside the absolute value, there will be no solutions, as absolute values cannot be negative.

How many solutions would you expect for this system of equations?

To determine the number of solutions for a system of equations, one would typically analyze the equations' characteristics—such as their slopes and intercepts in the case of linear equations. If the equations represent parallel lines, there would be no solutions; if they intersect at a single point, there is one solution; and if they are identical, there would be infinitely many solutions. Without specific equations, it's impossible to provide a definitive number of solutions.

What are solutions of trigonometric equations?

That means the same as solutions of other types of equations: a number that, when you replace the variable by that number, will make the equation true.Note that many trigonometric equations have infinitely many solutions. This is a result of the trigonometric functions being periodic.


What absolute value inequality has 6 and -10 as two of its solutions?

How many solutions does this system have?

To determine how many solutions a system has, we need to analyze the equations involved. Typically, a system of linear equations can have one solution (intersecting lines), infinitely many solutions (coincident lines), or no solution (parallel lines). If you provide the specific equations, I can give a more accurate assessment of the number of solutions.


If a system of equations is independent how many soultions will it have?

A system of equations may have any amount of solutions. If the equations are linear, the system will have either no solution, one solution, or an infinite number of solutions. If the equations are linear AND there are as many equations as variables, AND they are independent, the system will have exactly one solution.


How man solutions can a system have?

A system of equations can have three types of solutions: one unique solution, infinitely many solutions, or no solution at all. A unique solution occurs when the equations intersect at a single point, while infinitely many solutions arise when the equations represent the same line or plane. No solution occurs when the equations represent parallel lines or planes that do not intersect. The nature of the solutions depends on the relationships between the equations in the system.
