Other Ways to Solve

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
|2k+6|=|k|
without the absolute value bars:

|x|=|y||2k+6|=|k|
x=+y(2k+6)=(k)
x=y(2k+6)=(k)
+x=y(2k+6)=(k)
x=y(2k+6)=(k)

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||2k+6|=|k|
x=+y , +x=y(2k+6)=(k)
x=y , x=y(2k+6)=(k)

2. Solve the two equations for k

6 additional steps

(2k+6)=k

Subtract from both sides:

(2k+6)-k=k-k

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

(2k-k)+6=k-k

Permudahkan aritmetik:

k+6=kk

Permudahkan aritmetik:

k+6=0

Subtract from both sides:

(k+6)-6=0-6

Permudahkan aritmetik:

k=06

Permudahkan aritmetik:

k=6

10 additional steps

(2k+6)=-k

Add to both sides:

(2k+6)+k=-k+k

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

(2k+k)+6=-k+k

Permudahkan aritmetik:

3k+6=k+k

Permudahkan aritmetik:

3k+6=0

Subtract from both sides:

(3k+6)-6=0-6

Permudahkan aritmetik:

3k=06

Permudahkan aritmetik:

3k=6

Divide both sides by :

(3k)3=-63

Permudahkan pecahan:

k=-63

3. List the solutions

k=6,2
(2 solution(s))

4. Graph

Each line represents the function of one side of the equation:
y=|2k+6|
y=|k|
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.
