Answer 1

A

Answer 2

can u show your steps

Answer 3

Of course!

Answer 4

Since it is absolute value, you will of course have two answers. All you have to do, is think of the 2x-4 like it is in parenthesis. So, the first equation is going to be 5(2x-4)+1=11. For that, solve for x. To get the second equation, flip the signs of the expression in the absolute value bars, 2x-4. It will become -2x+4 and solve for that. So, your second equation will be 5(-2x+4)+1=11
