8 = ∣ - 3 g ∣ - 1

g = - 3 or g = 3

Solution steps

8 = ∣ - 3 g ∣ - 1

Switch sides

∣ - 3 g ∣ - 1 = 8

Move

1

to the right side

∣ - 3 g ∣ = 9

Apply absolute rule: If

∣ u ∣ = a, a > 0

then

u = a

u = - a

- 3 g = - 9 or - 3 g = 9

- 3 g = - 9 or - 3 g = 9

g = - 3 or g = 3

∣ j ∣ + 1 = - 2

3 ∣ 5 y ∣ = 0

2^{x} = ∣ 31 x - 85 ∣

- 8 = 8 ∣ h ∣

∣ j ∣ + 1 = 15
