I got disconnected from my tutor, can't reconnect. need an explanation ​
kherson [118]

The absolute value function |<em>x</em>| always returns a non-negative number. It takes any number <em>x</em> and returns <em>x</em> if it's already non-negative, or -<em>x</em> if it is negative in order to make it positive.

|x|=\begin{cases}x&\text{for }x\ge0\\-x&\text{for }x

For the equation

-3 + 4 |2<em>x</em> - 5| = 14

rearrange terms to get

|2<em>x</em> - 5| = 17/4

Now,

• if 2<em>x</em> - 5 ≥ 0, then |2<em>x</em> - 5| = 2<em>x</em> - 5. Then

2<em>x</em> - 5 = 17/4

• and if instead 2<em>x</em> - 5 < 0, then |2<em>x</em> - 5| = -(2<em>x</em> - 5), so that

-(2<em>x</em> - 5) = 17/4, or

2<em>x</em> - 5 = -17/4

In the first case,

2<em>x</em> - 5 = 17/4

2<em>x</em> = 17/4 + 5 = 37/4

<em>x</em> = 37/8

In the second case,

2<em>x</em> - 5 = -17/4

2<em>x</em> = -17/4 + 5 = 3/4

<em>x</em> = 3/8
