|x+(-3)|=25

∣ x + (- 3) ∣ = 25

x = - 22 or x = 28

Solution steps

∣ x - 3 ∣ = 25

Apply absolute rule: If

∣ u ∣ = a, a > 0

then

u = a

u = - a

x - 3 = - 25 or x - 3 = 25

x - 3 = - 25 or x - 3 = 25

x = - 22 or x = 28

5 ∣ 3 v - 8 ∣ = - 10

- 3 + \frac{b}{5} = - 2

∣ y ∣ = ∣ 1 ∣

- 4 = ∣ x + 2 ∣ - 5

∣ x - 4 ∣ - 5 = - 2
