Question 597044
{{{abs(2x-10)+7=5}}} Start with the given equation



{{{abs(2x-10)=-2}}} Subtract 7 from both sides.



Since the expression {{{abs(2x-10)=-2}}} is <font size=4><b>never</b></font> true (note: remember, the absolute value of any number is <font size=4><b>always positive</b></font>), there are no solutions to {{{abs(2x-10)=-2}}}




So there are no solutions to the given equation.
