1. |b/5|=1 take the equation out of the absolute value b/5=1 *5 *5 multiply both sides by 5 _____ b=5
2. 2-5|5m-5|=-73 get rid of what's outside the absolute value first -2 -2 subtract 2 from both sides ____________ -5|5m-5|=-75 ÷-5 ÷-5 divide both sides by -5 __________ |5m-5|=15 take the equation out of the absolute value 5m-5=15 +5 +5 add 5 to both sides _______ 5m=20 ÷5 ÷5 divide both sides by 5 _____ m=4
3. |7p+4|/8=3 *8 *8 multiply by 8 __________ |7p+4|=25 take out the equation 7p+4=25 -4 -4 subtract 4 _______ 7p=20 ÷7 ÷7 divide by 7 ______ p=20/7
4. 5-8|-2n|=-80 +5 +5 add 5 __________ -8|-2n|=-80 ÷-8 ÷-8 divide by -8 ________ |-2n|=10 take out equation -2n=10 ÷-2 ÷-2 divide by -2 ______ n=-5
÷ 2 = 
÷ 
=
