-8-4|5+2x|=-68

- 8 - 4 ∣ 5 + 2 x ∣ = - 68

x = - 10 or x = 5

Solution steps

- 8 - 4 ∣ 5 + 2 x ∣ = - 68

Move

8

to the right side

- 4 ∣ 5 + 2 x ∣ = - 60

Divide both sides by

- 4

∣ 5 + 2 x ∣ = 15

Apply absolute rule: If

∣ u ∣ = a, a > 0

then

u = a

u = - a

5 + 2 x = - 15 or 5 + 2 x = 15

5 + 2 x = - 15 or 5 + 2 x = 15

x = - 10 or x = 5

∣ x - 6 ∣ = 20

- 10 + ∣ 9 - 6 x ∣ = - 1

∣ 5 - 2 x ∣ = 1

x^{2} - 3 x - 1 = 1

5 ∣ 5 x - 7 ∣ - 1 = 14
