- 18 = - 4 ∣ t ∣ - 5

t = - \frac{13}{4} or t = \frac{13}{4}

Decimal

t = - 3.25, t = 3.25

Solution steps

- 18 = - 4 ∣ t ∣ - 5

Switch sides

- 4 ∣ t ∣ - 5 = - 18

Move

5

to the right side

- 4 ∣ t ∣ = - 13

Divide both sides by

- 4

∣ t ∣ = \frac{13}{4}

Apply absolute rule: If

∣ u ∣ = a, a > 0

then

u = a

u = - a

t = - \frac{13}{4} or t = \frac{13}{4}

∣ 3 x - 10 ∣ = 5

∣ 2 x + 1 ∣ - x = 2 x

∣ 125 x - 34 ∣ = - 2

∣ 3 x - 5 ∣ = ∣ 6 x + 10 ∣

∣ 3 - 4 x ∣ = ∣ 2 x + 1 ∣
