Question

Solve the equation. Graph the solution(s) if possible. ∣x−3∣+4=9

Answer 1

Answer:

x=8

x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

∣x−3∣+4=9

= ∣x−3∣=5

Positive term: (x-3)

  (x-3) = 5

Rearrange and Add up

  x = 8

Negative term: -(x-3)

Multiply

     -x+3 = 5  

Rearrange and Add up

     -x = 2  

Multiply both sides by (-1)

     x = -2
