Find the solution set of |2x-3| + 1 = 6.

x = 1 or x = -1
x = 5 or x = -2
x = 4 or x = -1
x = 4 or x = -4

Answer 1

|2x-3| + 1 = 6
|2x-3| = 5
Split into two equations.
2x - 3 = 5
2x - 3 = -5

Answer 2

Solve for x.

Answer 3

2x - 3 = 5 --> 2x = 8 --> x = 4
2x - 3 = -5 --> 2x = -2 --> x = -1

Answer 4

So...C
