Question

PLEASE HELP
solve the equation and write the solution set: |4x-8|-3x=6x+2

Answer 1

start by getting absolute value signs by themself, how you going to get rid of the -3x?

Answer 2

im noy sure please explain to me how to do this

Answer 3

To get rid of the -3x, add 3x to both sides.....
so you end up with
\[\left| 4x-8 \right|= 9x +2\]

do you see where that came from?

Answer 4

now solve 2 seperate equations
4x - 8 = 9x +2 and 4x -8 = -(9x + 2)
