Answer 2

Answer Step by Step:

Move all terms not containing |-9-2x| to the right side of the equation.

|-9-2x| = 11

Remove the absolute value term. This creates a ±  on the right side of the equation because |x| = ±x.

-9-2x=±11

Set up the positive portion of the ± solution.

-9-2x=11

Solve the first equation for x.

x = -10

Set up the negative portion of the ± solution.

-9-2x=-11

Solve the second equation for x.

x = 1

(Answer)  x = -10,1
