-|-8-2x|=-12

- ∣ - 8 - 2 x ∣ = - 12

x = - 10 or x = 2

Solution steps

- ∣ - 8 - 2 x ∣ = - 12

Divide both sides by

- 1

∣ - 8 - 2 x ∣ = 12

Apply absolute rule: If

∣ u ∣ = a, a > 0

then

u = a

u = - a

- 8 - 2 x = - 12 or - 8 - 2 x = 12

- 8 - 2 x = - 12 or - 8 - 2 x = 12

x = - 10 or x = 2

5 ∣ x + 1 ∣ + 7 = - 38

∣ 2 a - 1 ∣ - 4 = 5

∣ 2 x + 5 ∣ - 3 = 10

\frac{4 x - 8}{5} = 4

5 + 7 ∣ x + 6 ∣ = 19
