∣ 3 x + 5 ∣ = 1

x = - 2 or x = - \frac{4}{3}

Decimal Notation

x = - 2, x = - 1.33333 \dots

Solution steps

∣ 3 x + 5 ∣ = 1

Apply absolute rule: If

∣ u ∣ = a, a > 0

then

u = a

u = - a

3 x + 5 = - 1 or 3 x + 5 = 1

3 x + 5 = - 1 or 3 x + 5 = 1

x = - 2 or x = - \frac{4}{3}

9 u^{2} + 25 = 30 u

∣ x + 2 ∣ = ∣ 2 - x ∣

- 72 > 12 r

1 > \frac{p}{2} - 1

\frac{2 x}{6} + \frac{7}{2} = \frac{5}{3}
