Remark
This will have 2 solutions. I will enclose a graph to show how it is done.
4|2x - 2| + 10 = 34 Subtract 10
Solution
4|2x - 2| = 34 - 10
4|2x - 2| = 24 Divide by 4
|2x - 2| = 24/4
|2x - 2| = 6
Solution 1
2x - 2 = 6 Add 2
2x = 6 + 2
2x = 8 Divide by 2
x = 8/2
x = 4
Solution 2
Make the 6 into - 6 and solve again
|2x - 2| = - 6
2x - 2= -6 Add 2 to both sides.
2x = - 6 + 2
2x = - 4 Divide by 2
x = - 4/2
x = - 2
Answer
There are 2 solutions
(-2,0) and (4,0) See the graph below.
