1 = ∣ s + 22 ∣

s = - 23 or s = - 21

Solution steps

1 = ∣ s + 22 ∣

Switch sides

∣ s + 22 ∣ = 1

Apply absolute rule: If

∣ u ∣ = a, a > 0

then

u = a

u = - a

s + 22 = - 1 or s + 22 = 1

s + 22 = - 1 or s + 22 = 1

s = - 23 or s = - 21

∣ x - 1 ∣ + 1 = x^{2} - 4 x

∣ 6 x - 3 ∣ = 33

∣ x - 3 ∣ + ∣ x - 6 ∣ = 5

∣ 11 - 2 x ∣ + 6 = 10

8 - ∣ 1 - 2 x ∣ = x
