It is in need of ignoring the absolute value sign when solving differential equations because they may interfere with the solution or in a way that the values that are being calculated may have a different answer in which is not the right answer to the given equation.
Ok so you have to use PEMDAS . so first you have to get rid of the parenthesis.
2 x 6x = 12x then 2 x -5= -10
12 + 5x -8 = 12x -10
combine now: 12 - 8 = 4
5x + 4 = 12x - 10
- 4 -4
5x = 12x -14
-12x=-12x
-7x = -14
-14/-7
x=2
