Question

Compare and Contrast: Below are two equations. Solve each equation and compare the two solutions. Choose the statement that is true about each solution.

Equation #1
Equation #2

|x − 4| = 6
|3x + 12| = 18



Equation #1 and Equation #2 have the same number of solutions.

Equation #1 has more solutions than equation #2.

Equation #1 has fewer solutions than equation #2.

None of the statements above describe the number of solutions to equations shown.

Answer 1

x - 4 = 6 or x - 4 = -6
second equation
3x + 12 = 18 or 3x + 12 = -18

so why do you think?

Answer 2

* lol what do you think?

Answer 3

umm im not sure

Answer 4

they both have 2 solutions

Answer 5

the modulus signs | | indicate the values inside them make the values positive if they are negative or positive

Answer 6

so a??

Answer 7

first option is correct

Answer 8

yes

Answer 9
