Solve for x: 5|2x − 2| + 8 = 18

Answer 1

I looked up your question and found this if it makes any sense

5 |2x-2|+8=18

5|2x-2|= 18-8
5|2x-2|=10
5/5 |2x-2|=10/5
|2x-2|=2
2|x-1|=2
|x-1|=1
x-1= 1 or x-1 = -1

x=2 0r x=0
check: If x=2, LHS:5|4-2|+8=10+8=18=RHS
If x=0, LHS= 5|0-2|+8=10+8=18=RHS
Ans: x=2, x=0
