Question

Solve the equation.

|4x + 1| - 3 = 26

x = 7 , x = -7
x = -7.5, x = -7
x = -7.5, x = 7
x = 29/5, x = -29/5

Is C the correct answer?

Answer 1

x=7 is the answer

Answer 2

4x + 1- 3 = 26
4x - 2 = 26
4x = 28
x = 7
Your answer is 7 or -7, because the absolute value signs would make -7 positive anyways.
