You can put this solution on YOUR website!
3|x-4| = 10
\n" ); document.write( "Divide both sides by 3
\n" ); document.write( "|x-4| = \"10%2F3\"
\n" ); document.write( "Remove absolutes, solve for two solutions
\n" ); document.write( "x - 4 = \"10%2F3\"
\n" ); document.write( "x = \"10%2F3\" + 4
\n" ); document.write( "x = \"10%2F3\" + \"12%2F3\"
\n" ); document.write( "x = \"22%2F3\"
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "x - 4 = \"-10%2F3\"
\n" ); document.write( "x = \"-10%2F3\" + 4
\n" ); document.write( "x = \"-10%2F3\" + \"12%2F3\"
\n" ); document.write( "x = \"2%2F3\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
