2|2x − 2| + 4 = 20.
2|2x − 2|  = 20.- 4
2|2x − 2| = 16
|2x − 2| =8

That means:
1st: 2x-2 = 8   and 2nd: 2x - 2 = -8
1st: 2x=10 and x = 5

2nd  2x-2=-8, 2x = -6 and x = -3

So x = 5 and x = -3 (1st answer)

I will give Brainliest to First and Correct Answer. Can Somebody please help...I really need help and I am struggling.
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer: B' (5,8), C' (3,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the points A' (-1,8) and A (-2,-3) to find how many units point A was translated.

-2 + 1 = -1

-3 + 11 = 8

Then, you simply add 1 to the x-values of points B and C and 11 to the y-values of points B and C to get B' (5,8), C' (3,1).

I hope this helps!
