x = \frac{5}{2} or x = \frac{11}{2}

Decimal Notation

x = 2.5, x = 5.5

Solution steps

8 + 5 ∣ 8 - 2 x ∣ = 23

Move

8

to the right side

5 ∣ 8 - 2 x ∣ = 15

Divide both sides by

5

∣ 8 - 2 x ∣ = 3

Apply absolute rule: If

∣ u ∣ = a, a > 0

then

u = a

u = - a

8 - 2 x = - 3 or 8 - 2 x = 3

8 - 2 x = - 3 or 8 - 2 x = 3

x = \frac{5}{2} or x = \frac{11}{2}

15 = ∣ - y + 15 ∣

3 ∣ 4 x - 4 ∣ - 8 = - 2

- 3 ∣ p ∣ = 12

∣ 9 b ∣ = 9

- 5 ∣ x + 1 ∣ + 2 = 12
