∣ 5 y - 3 ∣ = 28

y = - 5 or y = \frac{31}{5}

Solution steps

∣ 5 y - 3 ∣ = 28

Apply absolute rule: If

∣ u ∣ = a, a > 0

then

u = a

u = - a

5 y - 3 = - 28 or 5 y - 3 = 28

5 y - 3 = - 28 or 5 y - 3 = 28

y = - 5 or y = \frac{31}{5}

∣ y - 11 ∣ = 18

∣ - 2 b + 11 ∣ = 17

3 ∣ 2 x + 5 ∣ = 9 x - 6

∣ a + 10 ∣ = 34

∣ b + 18 ∣ = 50
