3 + 4abs(x/2 + 3) = 11 Subtract 3
4 abs(x/2 + 3) = 11 - 3
4 abs(x/2 + 3) = 8 Divide by 4
abs(x/2 + 3) = 8/4
abs(x/2 + 3) = 2
Solution 1
x/2 + 3 = 2 Subtract 3
x/2 = 2 - 3
x/2 = - 1 Multiply by 2
x/2 *2 = - 2
x = - 2
Solution 2
x/2 + 3 = - 2
x/2 = - 2 - 3
x/2 = - 5 Multiply by 2
x = -5 * 2
x = -10
Solutions
x = - 2 <<<< answer 1
x = -10 <<<< answer 2

Answer: 123 square feet
Step-by-step explanation: The question is a little odd, but I can break it down easily. It wants us to find the area of a three foot border around his room.
First, the whole area of his room is 20 x 24 = 480
Next, we have to make the measurements 3 feet smaller on each wall, so 17 x 21 = 357
Finally, to find the area of the border, we simply do 480 - 357 = 123
He needs to buy 123 square feet of carpeting
Hope this helps!
Because the two numbers are considered prime numbers and they don't have any other factors besides one and themselves.
