Answer:
x = - 8, x = - 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
8 | x + 7 | - 3 = 5 ( add 3 to both sides )
8 | x + 7 | = 8 ( divide both sides by 8 )
| x + 7 | = 1
The expression inside the bars can be positive or negative, thus
x + 7 = 1 or - (x + 7) = 1 ← 2 equations to be solved
x + 7 = 1 ( subtract 7 from both sides )
x = - 6
or
-(x + 7) = 1
- x - 7 = 1 ( add 7 to both sides )
- x = 8 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )
x = - 8
