I will give medals!! The table below shows two equations: Equation 1 |2x - 3| + 5 = 4 Equation 2 |5x + 3| - 10 = 3 Which statement is true about the solution to the two equations? Equation 1 and equation 2 have no solutions. Equation 1 has no solution, and equation 2 has solutions x = 2, -3.2. The solutions to equation 1 are x = 1, 2, and equation 2 has no solution. The solutions to equation 1 are x = 1, 2, and equation 2 has solutions x = 2, -3.2.

Well equation one doesn't have a solution pero I cant solve solution 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think d is the correct answer because whenever there is modulus sign we have two answers

OpenStudy (adajiamcneal):

but equation one doesn't have a solution....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what would it be?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no it have a solution it is 1 or 2. cause when |x-1|=-1 then it becomes \[x-1=\pm1\] just giving an example

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so like u said before it would be D

OpenStudy (adajiamcneal):

well that example is wrong because the two bars around the x-1 would make the 1 a positive

OpenStudy (adajiamcneal):

nevermind I didn't see the bottom of your comment...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well thank both of u for ur help
