An absolute value equal to a negative number.
OpenStudy (zugzwang):
What he said^
Parth (parthkohli):
\[|x - 2| = -1\]Hmm
OpenStudy (zugzwang):
No...
See, that absolute value part?
It's never going to be negative.
It could be zero, but never negative.
So you add something non-negative to 4
And you get 3
I don't want to live on this planet anymore XD
OpenStudy (ryan123345):
its not 3 or negative 3....

It's an important and popular fact that for any real number a,
|a| ≥ 0
OpenStudy (ryan123345):
i dont think there is any solutions...
OpenStudy (zugzwang):
There aren't... given that 'important and popular fact',
|x - 2| + 4 = 3
|x - 2| + 4 - 4 = 3 - 4
|x - 2| = -1
And like the fact says, this cannot be, as the absolute value of any real number is never going to be negative.
