Question

Which value of x satisfies the equation |-2x|=10

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First you will divide I-2xI on both sides that should look like this:

       -2x/-2 = 10/-2

when you divide it your -2‘s should cancel out and you should be left with

         -x=10/-2

when You divide 10/-2 you should get -5

         10/-2= -5

your answer should look like this then

         -x=-5

-5 is just one of your answers the other is 5

To get rid of the negative on the -X you have to didvide it by both sides

        -x/-x=-5/-x

your answer should be

          X= 5

your final answers are

      -5 or 5
