------------------
27x-50 is not a problem.
What 2 straight lines?
What are you asked to do?
I suspect your two straight lines mean absolute value, something like this:
Absolute value means:
So for your expression:
So you can say:
That's about all you can do with this. You might want to send us the rest of the problem as I suspect your was set equal to something. And then next time you need "between two straight lines" hold the Shift key and hit the backslash key right above the Enter key -- it gives you this: |
If you are having trouble reading what I wrote, remember means "If p then q" while means "and" as in: "If x is greater than or equal to 50 over 27 then the absolute value of 27x - 50 is equal to 27x - 50 and if x is less than 50 over 27 then the absolute value of 27x - 50 is equal to the additive inverse of 27x - 50."
