The answer is -11/2, 9/2
Explanation
You have to rewrite the absolute value equation as two separate equations.
2x+1=10
2x+1=-10
Then you solve for X in each equation.
2x+1=10 would give you 9/2
2x+1=-10 would give you -11/2
So your final solutions would be x1= -11/2 x2= 9/2
Since there is no repetition allowed, there are 10 possibilities for the 1st digit, 9 for the 2nd, 8 for the 3rd, and 7 for the 4th. This gives a total of (10)(9)(8)(7) = 5040 four-digit codes.
For all odd digits to be used, there are 5 possibilities for the 1st digit (1,3,5,7,9), 4 for the 2nd, 3 for the 3rd, 2 for the 4th. This gives a total of (5)(4)(3)(2) = 120 codes that only use odd digits.
Therefore there are 5040 - 120 = 4920 codes that do not consist of all odd digits. The probability is 4920/5040 = 41/42.
