Answer:
Incorrect
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the equation:

Add both sides by 9.

When we want to tell if the absolute equation has solutions or not, we have to simplify in this form first: or isolate the absolute sign.

If c ≥ 0, the equation has solutions.
If c < 0, the equation does not have solutions.
Therefore, it does not always matter if the constant on right side is in negative because if there is a number on the left side then there is a chance that the equation has solutions.
From |3x+8| = 4 is equivalent |3x+8|-9=-5 and the right side is 4 which is positive.
Hence, the equation does have a solution!
3x^2 - 7x + 12 = 0 ....subtract 12 from both sides
3x^2 - 7x = -12 ....divide both sides by 3 to get x^2 by itself
x^2 - 7/3x = -4
His work is not accurate because he divided the second term by 4 instead of 3.
