\(\normalsize\color{blue}{ |x − 2| + 10 = 12 }\) subtract 10 from both sides
\(\normalsize\color{blue}{ |x − 2|+ 10 \color{red}{-10}= 12 \color{red}{-10}}\)
\(\normalsize\color{blue}{ |x − 2| = 2 }\)

\(\normalsize\color{blue}{ |x − 2| = 2 ~~~~\color{red}{⇒} ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~x-2=2,~~~~or~~~~~~x-2=-2}\)
