Question

Solve |2x-5|=4 Please helpppp

Answer 1

Answer:

this would equal $\frac{9}{2}$ or $\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

|2x−5|=4

Solve Absolute Value.

|2x−5|=4

We know either 2x−5=4or2x−5=−4

2x−5=4 (Possibility 1)

2x−5+5=4+5 (Add 5 to both sides)

2x=9

$\frac{2x}{2}*\frac{9}{2}$(Divide both sides by 2)

x = $\frac{9}{2}$

(Possibility 2)

2x−5=−4

2x−5+5=−4+5 (Add 5 to both sides)

2x=1

$\frac{2x}{2}*\frac{1}{2}$   (Divide both sides by 2)

x = $\frac{1}{2}$
