|-1/2 b-2|=10

- \frac{1}{2} b - 2 = 10

b = - 24 or b = 16

Solution steps

- \frac{1}{2} b - 2 = 10

Apply absolute rule: If

∣ u ∣ = a, a > 0

then

u = a

u = - a

- \frac{1}{2} b - 2 = - 10 or - \frac{1}{2} b - 2 = 10

- \frac{1}{2} b - 2 = - 10 or - \frac{1}{2} b - 2 = 10

b = - 24 or b = 16

∣ 7 x - 2 ∣ = - 7

∣ - 6 x + 2 ∣ - 8 = 5

x^{2} - 3 = 3 x + 15

∣ - x + 5 ∣ = ∣ x ∣

∣ x - 3 ∣ = x - ∣ x + 1 ∣
