Question

Solve for x: 3|x - 3| + 2 = 14

No solutions

x = -1, x = 8.3

x = 0, x = 7

x = -1, x = 7

Answer 1

No Solution

Answer 2

3|x - 3| + 2 = 14 <--- we subtract from both sides, 2
3|x - 3| = 12 <--- divide off the 3
|x - 3| = 4 <--- two possible cases.
x - 3 = +4 and x - 3 = -4

generally there is no solution when we have, say, an absolute value equal to a negative number. we should never have |1| = -1 or something of the sort.

Answer 3

So , Its NO SOLUTION RIGHT

Answer 4

|x - 3| = a positive 4 o.o
the situation i am referring to is like this:
|x - 3| = negative 4

imagine the graph of the absolute value if that helps. it has a vertex on the x-axis and is alwayys positive. you cannot intersect something always positive with a number y = -4, but certainly y=+4 runs through it.

Answer 5

its a yes or no question ;-;
im very confused non of that even is a answer

Answer 6

we are meant to give an explanation for the answer, not give them blindly. ;x

this is where i left off:
x - 3 = +4 and x - 3 = -4
if you understood the work before it and continue through, you should get a final answer by solving each equation.
