SOLUTION: |3x + 2| = 14
3x=2-2=14-2
3/3=12/3 =4
Is this the absolute value, can you go thru each step to get that number?
-5|x +1| = -10 I have this as no solution because of the -

-5|x +1| = -10 I have this as no solution because of the -10 correct?? Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Since |3x+2| is 14, the 3x+2 must be either 14 or -14
So you have two equations to solve:
1st: 3x+2=14
3x=12
x=4
2nd: 3x+2=-14
3x=-12
x=-4
So x=4 or x=-4
