Question 389586: Solve 3|2x + 2| − 7 = 5 for x.
3|2x + 2| − 7 = 5
3|2x + 2| = 5+7
3|2x + 2| =12
|2x + 2| =12/3
|2x + 2| =4
either 2x + 2=4 or 2x + 2=-4
2x =4 -2 2x=-4-2
2x=2 2x=-6
x =1 x=-3
admitted neglect
answer:x=1

3|2x + 2| − 7 = 5
3|2x + 2| = 5+7
3|2x + 2| =12
|2x + 2| =12/3
|2x + 2| =4
either 2x + 2=4 or 2x + 2=-4
2x =4 -2 2x=-4-2
2x=2 2x=-6
x =1 x=-3
admitted neglect
answer:x=1
