hope this helps :)

Answer 2

Answer:

x=-2 OR x=-10 i.e.

Solution Set = {-2,-10}

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation described in words is typed and solved below:

$3+4|\frac{x}{2}+3|=11 \\4|\frac{x}{2}+3|=11-3\\4|\frac{x}{2}+3|=8\\|\frac{x}{2}+3|=\frac{8}{4} \\|\frac{x}{2}+3|=2\\\frac{x}{2}+3=2 OR \frac{x}{2}+3=-2\\\frac{x}{2}=2-3 OR \frac{x}{2}=-2-3\\\frac{x}{2}=-1 OR \frac{x}{2}=-5\\x=-2ORx=-10$
