Question 831681: If solutions do exist for absolute value equations, how many solutions should you get? Please and thank you. Ive been stuck on this question and could not find it out.
Answer by hovuquocan1997(83)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! If solutions do exist for absolute value equations, you should get 2 solutions,let's look at a simple example
|x| = 2
with this equation, you can find 2 solutions, which are x = 2 and x = -2 right?
Because with absolute value, it doesn't matter what is in the absolute value, because the absolute value makes them all positive, that means when you solve an absolute value equation, you get two possibilities, one is positive and one is negative
TA-DAH :D
