How do you solve this absolute value equation? ∣x−2∣=∣4+x∣

L x - 2 l = l 4 + x l

Remember : Absolute is just the distance from zero.

Ex : l -4 l turns into 4, as it is 4 spaces away from zero on a number line :)

l x - 2 l turns into x + 2

l 4 + x l stays the same.

So, our equation now looks like this :

x + 2 = 4 + x

So, we're basically just trying to get x by itself.

So, subtract 2 from both sides.

x = 4 + x - 2

Then, subtract x from both sides.

x - x = 4 -2 

0 = 2

Therefore, there are no solutions to this equation :)

~Hope I helped!~

Find the value of x.
Irina-Kira [14]
The 2 angles are complementary angles and need to equal 90 degrees.

Making an equation we have:

4x-10 + x = 90 degrees

Add like tems:
4x +x = 5x

Now we have:
5x-10 = 90

Add 10 to both sides:

5x = 100

Divide both sides by 5:

x = 100/5

X = 20

Points P and Q belong to segment AB . If AB = a, AP = 2PQ = 2QB, find the distance: midpoints between AP QB
Digiron [165]

Answer: The distace between midpoints of AP and QB is \frac{a}{8}.

Step-by-step explanation: Points P and Q are between points A and B and the segment AB measures a, then:

AP + PQ + QB = a

According to the question, AP = 2 PQ = 2QB, so:

PQ = \frac{AP}{2}

QB = \frac{AP}{2}

Substituing:

AP + 2*(\frac{AP}{2}) = a

2AP = a

AP = \frac{a}{2}

Since the distance is between midpoints of AP and QB:

2QB = AP

QB = \frac{AP}{2}

QB = \frac{a}{2}*\frac{1}{2}

QB = \frac{a}{4}

MIdpoint is the point that divides the segment in half, so:

<u>Midpoint of AP</u>:

\frac{AP}{2} = \frac{a}{2}*\frac{1}{2}

\frac{AP}{2} = \frac{a}{4}

<u>Midpoint of QB</u>:

\frac{QB}{2} = \frac{a}{4}*\frac{1}{2}

\frac{QB}{2} = \frac{a}{8}

The distance is:

d = \frac{a}{4} - \frac{a}{8}

d = \frac{a}{8}
