|x+5|=3

∣ x + 5 ∣ = 3

x = - 8 or x = - 2

Solution steps

∣ x + 5 ∣ = 3

Apply absolute rule: If

∣ u ∣ = a, a > 0

then

u = a

u = - a

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

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

x = - 8 or x = - 2

x^{7}

x^{2} - x \geq 2

\frac{x + 3}{x + 1} \geq 0

(\frac{4}{3})^{- 2} (\frac{1}{5})^{3}

\frac{x ^{2}}{12} - \frac{x}{4} = \frac{1}{3}
