Solve the following absolute value equation.
−8 − 2 |5X – 17| = −14
1 answer:
If 5x - 17 ≥ 0, then |5x - 17| = 5x - 17 and the equation reduces to
-8 - 2 (5x - 17) = -14
-8 - 10x + 34 = -14
-10x = -40
x = 4
If 5x - 17 < 0, then |5x - 17| = -(5x - 17) = -5x + 17 and we have
-8 - 2 (-5x + 17) = -14
-8 + 10x - 34 = -14
10x = 28
x = 2.8
