Question

What is the value of x|5x + 6| + 6 = x​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

absolute(5x + 6) = x

There are 2 solutions to this

Solution 1

5x + 6 = x                    Subtract 5x from both sides.

5x - 5x + 6 = x - 5x

6 = - 4x                       Divide by - 4

6/ - 4  = -4x / -4

x = - 1.5

Solution 2

5x + 6 = - x

6 = -x - 5x

6 = - 6x

x = 6/-6

x = - 1
