Question

|x + 3| = 10
solve for x

Answer 1

Do you know how to solve for absolute value?

Answer 2

What Is 10 - 3?

Answer 3

It is asking you, what plus 3 will give me 10

Answer 4

This equation is absolute value.
|x+3|=10
Step 1:Take away the absolute value lines,
x+3=10
Step 2: Then solve the equation like a normal problem
x+3=10
-3 -3
x=7 This is one of your solutions, the other solution is the opposite of what I just did.
|x+3|=10
+3 +3
x=-13 (because this is opposite)
Therefore your answers are x= 7,-13

Answer 5

put like terms together so x= 10-3
which= 7 hence x=7
