∣ 3 x - 12 ∣ = 8

x = \frac{4}{3} or x = \frac{20}{3}

Decimal

x = 1.33333 \dots, x = 6.66666 \dots

Solution steps

∣ 3 x - 12 ∣ = 8

Apply absolute rule: If

∣ u ∣ = a, a > 0

then

u = a

u = - a

3 x - 12 = - 8 or 3 x - 12 = 8

3 x - 12 = - 8 or 3 x - 12 = 8

x = \frac{4}{3} or x = \frac{20}{3}

1 - ∣ x - 1 ∣ = 0

∣ x - 1 ∣ + ∣ x + 2 ∣ = 3 x + 1

∣ 4 x + 5 ∣ - 3 = - 5

y^{2} + 3 y = - 2 y - 6

0 = - 4 ∣ x - 6 ∣ - 1
