2|w+6|=10

2 ∣ w + 6 ∣ = 10

w = - 11 or w = - 1

Solution steps

2 ∣ w + 6 ∣ = 10

Divide both sides by

2

∣ w + 6 ∣ = 5

Apply absolute rule: If

∣ u ∣ = a, a > 0

then

u = a

u = - a

w + 6 = - 5 or w + 6 = 5

w + 6 = - 5 or w + 6 = 5

w = - 11 or w = - 1

∣ 7 y + 9 ∣ + 5 = 1

∣ 3 x - 5 ∣ = 1

12 - 3 ∣ x - 4 ∣ = 1

∣ m + 4 ∣ + 1 = 26

∣ 2 - x ∣ + 7 = 2 x
