Your answer is 14

The two lines on each sides mean the number is an absolute value. The absolute value of a number is always positive, even if the number is positive itself!

Hope this helps!

Solve (x + 4)2 – 3(x + 4) – 3 = 0 using substitution. u = Select the solution(s) of the original equation.

Answer:

$\dfrac{-5-\sqrt{21}}{2},\ \dfrac{-5+\sqrt{21}}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

For the equation $(x+4)^2-3(x+4)-3=0$ use the substitution $u=x+4.$ Then the equation will take look

$u^2-3u-3=0.$

Solve this quadratic equation:

$D=(-3)^2-4\cdot 1\cdot (-3)=9+12=21,\\ \\u_{1,2}=\dfrac{-(-3)\pm \sqrt{21}}{2}=\dfrac{3\pm\sqrt{21}}{2}.$

Thus,

$x+4=\dfrac{3-\sqrt{21}}{2}\text{ or }x+4=\dfrac{3+\sqrt{21}}{2},\\ \\x_1=\dfrac{3-\sqrt{21}}{2}-4=\dfrac{-5-\sqrt{21}}{2}\text{ or }x_2=\dfrac{3+\sqrt{21}}{2}-4=\dfrac{-5+\sqrt{21}}{2}.$
