Question

What is the solution set of |2x – 3| – 6 = –1?

Answer 1

Add 6 to both sides first.

Answer 2

|2x-3|=5

Answer 3

=> 2x-3=5 or 2x-3=-5

Answer 4

Solve both of these equations and you will have your answers

Answer 5

-1,4...

Answer 6

What is the solution set of |2x – 3| – 6 = –1?
the | | signs mean just the simple answer, 2x-3, if it had a negative sign in front loike |-2x-3| it will still be 2x-3 the answer being used to solve! so dont let that confuse you!!
ok first take out the || sign. so 2x-3-6= -1 ... now solve!
2x-9=-1...... add 9 to both sides so, it will cancel out in the left and ur left with 2x=8 now divide by 2 in both sides and ur left with x=4!!!!

Answer 7

2x-3 is a absolute value from line ,so it has both answer .

Answer 8

|2x-3|=2x-3 when x>3/2
|2x-3|=-(2x-3) when x<3/2
we must look at both cases

|2x-3|-6=-1
|2x-3|=6-1
|2x-3|=5
=> 2x-3=5 or 2x-3=-5
=> 2x=8 or 2x=-2
=> x=4 or x=-1
Check both, kmila, these are both solutions!

Answer 9

check x=-1
we have
|2(-1)-3|-6=|-2-3|-6=|-5|-6=5-6=-1 <- we have this on both sides of equation
=> x=-1 is a solution
check x=4
|2(4)-3|-6=|8-3|-6=|5|-6=5-6=-1 <- we have this on both sides of equation
=> x=4 is a solution
=> we have two solutions x={-1,4}
