Answer 1

the 5 is right

Answer 2

this doesn't seem to have a solution and I am starting to become confused...ugh

Answer 3

x=5 and x=-2

Answer 4

you have |2x-3|=7
so we have two cases
2x-3=7 or 2x-3=-7
2x=10 2x=-4
x=5 x=-2
Check:

|2*5-3|=7
so x=5 works


|2*(-2)-3|=7

so x=-2 works

Answer 5

oh i see what i did now
