Absolute value equations

Penjelasan langkah demi langkah

1. Rewrite the equation without absolute value bars

Use the rules:
|x|=|y|x=±y and |x|=|y|±x=y
to write all four options of the equation
|12x|=|34x-2|
without the absolute value bars:

|x|=|y||12x|=|34x-2|
x=+y(12x)=(34x-2)
x=-y(12x)=-(34x-2)
+x=y(12x)=(34x-2)
-x=y-(12x)=(34x-2)

When simplified, equations x=+y and +x=y are the same and equations x=y and x=y are the same, so we end up with only 2 equations:

|x|=|y||12x|=|34x-2|
x=+y , +x=y(12x)=(34x-2)
x=-y , -x=y(12x)=-(34x-2)

Each line represents the function of one side of the equation:
y=|12x|
y=|34x-2|
The equation is true where the two lines cross.

We encounter absolute values almost daily. For example: If you walk 3 miles to school, do you also walk minus 3 miles when you go back home? The answer is no because distances use absolute value. The absolute value of the distance between home and school is 3 miles, there or back.
In short, absolute values help us deal with concepts like distance, ranges of possible values, and deviation from a set value.
