Algebra.Com's Answer #714598 by ikleyn(52835)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! . \n" ); document.write( " \r\n" ); document.write( "-4|x-2| - 9 = -37 ====> -4|x-2| = -37 + 9 = - 28 ====> \r\n" ); document.write( "\r\n" ); document.write( "\r\n" ); document.write( " divide by (-4) both sides. You will get an equivalent equation\r\n" ); document.write( "\r\n" ); document.write( "\r\n" ); document.write( "|x-2| = 7.\r\n" ); document.write( "\r\n" ); document.write( "\r\n" ); document.write( "The solutions are TWO numbers that are remoted on the number line in 7 units from 2.\r\n" ); document.write( "\r\n" ); document.write( "These numbers are 2+7 = 9 and 2-7 = -5.\r\n" ); document.write( "\r\n" ); document.write( "\r\n" ); document.write( "Answer. The given equation has two solutions: x= 9 and x= -2.\r\n" ); document.write( "\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "YOUR ANSWER IS CORRECT !
