x = - \frac{1}{4} or x = 1

Decimal Notation

x = - 0.25, x = 1

Solution steps

∣ - 8 x + 3 ∣ = 5

Apply absolute rule: If

∣ u ∣ = a, a > 0

then

u = a

u = - a

- 8 x + 3 = - 5 or - 8 x + 3 = 5

- 8 x + 3 = - 5 or - 8 x + 3 = 5

x = - \frac{1}{4} or x = 1

f = \frac{8 - 10}{2 ( 8 ) + 6}

6 (x - 2) - (2 x + 6) = 18

\frac{3 c ^{3} d}{9 c d ^{- 1}}

24 3^{- \frac{1}{5}}

12 = - 1 + c
