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
|2x+1|=|3x+5|
without the absolute value bars:

|x|=|y||2x+1|=|3x+5|
x=+y(2x+1)=(3x+5)
x=y(2x+1)=(3x+5)
+x=y(2x+1)=(3x+5)
x=y(2x+1)=(3x+5)

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||2x+1|=|3x+5|
x=+y , +x=y(2x+1)=(3x+5)
x=y , x=y(2x+1)=(3x+5)

2. Solve the two equations for x

9 additional steps

(2x+1)=(-3x+5)

Add to both sides:

(2x+1)+3x=(-3x+5)+3x

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

(2x+3x)+1=(-3x+5)+3x

Permudahkan aritmetik:

5x+1=(-3x+5)+3x

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

5x+1=(-3x+3x)+5

Permudahkan aritmetik:

5x+1=5

Subtract from both sides:

(5x+1)-1=5-1

Permudahkan aritmetik:

5x=51

Permudahkan aritmetik:

5x=4

Divide both sides by :

(5x)5=45

Permudahkan pecahan:

x=45

11 additional steps

(2x+1)=-(-3x+5)

Expand the parentheses:

(2x+1)=3x-5

Subtract from both sides:

(2x+1)-3x=(3x-5)-3x

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

(2x-3x)+1=(3x-5)-3x

Permudahkan aritmetik:

-x+1=(3x-5)-3x

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

-x+1=(3x-3x)-5

Permudahkan aritmetik:

x+1=5

Subtract from both sides:

(-x+1)-1=-5-1

Permudahkan aritmetik:

x=51

Permudahkan aritmetik:

x=6

Multiply both sides by :

-x·-1=-6·-1

Buang nilai satu:

x=-6·-1

Permudahkan aritmetik:

x=6

3. List the solutions

x=45,6
(2 solution(s))

4. Graph

Each line represents the function of one side of the equation:
y=|2x+1|
y=|3x+5|
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.
