Question

|–3n| – 2 = 4

Answer 1

Because it's absolute value, -3n will become positive.
3n - 2 = 4
Remove two from the equation by adding it to both sides (because it's negative).

Answer 2

Ok thanx(:

Answer 3

you cant just remove the absolute value sign

Answer 4

DOES ANYONE KNOW THE ANSWER? X/

Answer 5

start by isolating the absolute value sign
this can be done by adding 2 to both sides

now absolute value signs can be broken up into 2 different equations

\[|-x|=n\]
this can be broken up into
\[-x=n & -x=-n\]

Answer 6

I actually left it out... didn't notice. However, I did not work out the equation, so nothing changes.


Tiffers, we cannot simply give you the answer... nor can I completely work it out.
|3n| - 2 = 4, if you add 2 to both sides, what do you get?

Answer 7

So the answers 2?

Answer 8

and?

Answer 9

-2?

Answer 10

yes
now onto solving it

|–3n| – 2 = 4
add 2 to both sides

|–3n| – 2+2 = 4+2
|–3n| = 6

now we can break this up into 2 equations

-3n= 6 & -3n=-6

then just solve for both n

Answer 11

Thank you

Answer 12

just remember that you can't just remove the absolute value signs

absolute value signs break the equation up into 2 different equations
