Answer 1

What about the last problem? Have you finished it?

Answer 2

Yes, i got -11 and 17

Answer 3

Hint: Start by subtracting 4 from both sides. What do you obtain by doing that?

Answer 4

um 13 on the right

Answer 5

Yes. You have an equation here (right?) I'm asking you to subtract 4 from the left side and to subtract 4 from the right side. What does the whole equation look like now?

Answer 6

Yes, the right side is now 13. Left side?

Answer 7

would i subtract both -3 and 2?

Answer 8

Not yet. Please write |2x-3|=13. Sound correct to you?

Answer 9

yea

Answer 10

Now solve this most recent equation in exactly the same way you solve the previous one.

Write out 2 separate equations from |2x-3|=13.

Answer 11

Answer 12

ooo ok

Answer 13

Could you refer to our past discussion?

Answer 14

Answer 15

Write +(2x-3)=13 and -(2x-3)=13. Solve both.

Answer 16

-5 and 8

Answer 17

Please check your answers. For example, let x=8 in the original equation. Is the original equation now true? Also check x=-5.

Answer 18

o im wrong?

Answer 19

I certainly did not say that or mean that. I want you to get into the habit of checking your own answers whenever possible. Actually, I'm assuming you're right.
