Question

my answer is b!!!! :)

Solve for x. |x - 2| + 10 = 12

x = 4 and x = 0
x = -15 and x = 9
x = -4 and x = -2
x = -3 and x = 1
no solutions

Answer 1

Okay these aren't numbered so what one of these is "B"?

Answer 2

I would assume the second choice.

Answer 3

Is what she means by "b"

Answer 4

Answer 6

| | mean opposite?

Answer 7

I agree with @zerosniper123 I would say the first one also.

Answer 8

It means the absolute value...Which in this case does mean the opposite sign. :)

Answer 9

thank you babies

Answer 10

| | is like how many spaces it is from 0 So |-2|=2 and |2|=2

Answer 11

oh that makes sense

Answer 12

i found my answer loves:)

Answer 13

|x - 2| + 10 = 12
Subtract 10 from both sides
|x - 2| = 2
Now set what is inside the abdolute value signs equal to 2 and equal to -2. Solve both equations.
x - 2 = 2 or x - 2 = -2
Add 2 to both sides (in both equations)
x = 4 or x = 0
