(|-1+x|)/5 =1

\frac{∣ - 1 + x ∣}{5} = 1

x = - 4 or x = 6

Solution steps

\frac{∣ - 1 + x ∣}{5} = 1

Multiply both sides by

5

∣ - 1 + x ∣ = 5

Apply absolute rule: If

∣ u ∣ = a, a > 0

then

u = a

u = - a

- 1 + x = - 5 or - 1 + x = 5

- 1 + x = - 5 or - 1 + x = 5

x = - 4 or x = 6

∣ - 8 x ∣ = 32

∣ b + 4 ∣ = 5

∣ x - 2 ∣ = - 1

∣ x - 2 ∣ = - 4

∣ 2 a - 15 ∣ = 77
