p = - 6 or p = 6

Solution steps

- 8 + \frac{p}{2} = - 5

Move

8

to the right side

\frac{p}{2} = 3

Apply absolute rule: If

∣ u ∣ = a, a > 0

then

u = a

u = - a

\frac{p}{2} = - 3 or \frac{p}{2} = 3

\frac{p}{2} = - 3 or \frac{p}{2} = 3

p = - 6 or p = 6

∣ t + 8 ∣ = 2

∣ 6 a ∣ - 5 = 4 a

∣ j ∣ + 7 = 0

∣ 8 x + 5 ∣ + 7 = 5

∣ 3 x ∣ 4 + 6 = 9
