hey yall this is an absolute value thingy its been stressing me out so please help
|x|=4
|5x|=10
|x-2|=3
|5x-6|=4
|7-3x|=13
|2x-3|=1


Sagot :

Answer:

1. 4 or -4

2. 2 or -2

3. 5 or -1

4. 2

5. -2

6. 1 or 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Absolute values make the answer a positive value. So in the first one to make |x|=4, x can be either 4 or -4 because the lines around x tell you to remove the negative sign. Does this make sense? So for the answers, find the values for x that make the answer the value wanted, and then find the negative of the value wanted. For example, in |5x|=10, 5(2)=10 and 5(-2)=-10. But with absolute value signs, it changes it from -10 to 10.  Hope this helps, if you have any questions please let me know.
