I would isolate the |x-3| to one side of the equation and then use the properties of absolute values to solve for x.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I think x=5 because: -3(x-3)=-6 -3x-(-9)=-6 -3x+9=-6 -6-9=-15 -15+9=-6 x=5... I think :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
5 is indeed one solution, but is it the only solution?
