Weird. I think you just need to look if the point falls on the shaded area. But only (-5,5) does ...
Answer:
Solution set = {-12, 12}
Step-by-step explanation:
Start by dividing both sides of the given equation by negative one, to get rid of the negative signs on both sides:
Now we consider the two possible cases:
1) The expression inside the absolute value symbol is a positive number, then :
and replacing it in the equation, this becomes:
which is our first answer.
2) The expression inside the absolute value symbol is a negative number, then :
and replacing it in the equation, this becomes:
which is our second possible answer.
Then the set of solutions is: {-12, 12}
Answer:
x= 5/2 or 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
absolute value always gives us positive
if |u| = 2, u can be -2 or 2
2x-3 = 2
2x = 5
x = 5/2
2x-3 = -2
2x = 1
x= 1/2
in general, set the stuff inside the absolute value to equal both positive and negative of the equivalent value
