Decimal Notation

x = 0.375, x = 1.625

Solution steps

∣ 8 x - 8 ∣ = 5

Apply absolute rule: If

∣ u ∣ = a, a > 0

then

u = a

u = - a

8 x - 8 = - 5 or 8 x - 8 = 5

8 x - 8 = - 5 or 8 x - 8 = 5

x = \frac{3}{8} or x = \frac{13}{8}

x^{2} - 3 = 46

2 (3 v - 5) = 2 (v - 11) - 4

(- \frac{1}{4 - x})^{2}

6 x^{2} + x = 12
