Ok... let's break it apart and put it back together.

There's an absolute value... "2x-4" is inside the absolute value. The absolute value of "2x-4" is equal to the value of 8... so find x.

There are TWO cases:

(2x-4)=8
    OR
 -(2x-4)=8 

Now you should be able to solve it. If you can't... well, just ask me below. I can't do ALL the work, can I?

|2x - 4| = 8 ⇔ 2x - 4 = -8 or 2x - 4 = 8  |add 4 to both sides

2x = -4 or 2x = 12    |divide both sides by 2

x = -2 or x = 6

Yo help me with number 6 pls thx and tell me how. I can't find the answer
dybincka [34]
First find the formula which is A(N)=A+(N-1)D then fill in what you know
N=term your looking for
A=first term
D= common diffrence

Once filled in you will get this 18(18)=18+(18-1)-6
then solve to get 324= -84

Your final answer is that the 18th term is -84

Hope I could help
