x=2 , -2

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
|2x2|=|x+4|
without the absolute value bars:

|x|=|y||2x2|=|x+4|
x=+y(2x2)=(x+4)
x=y(2x2)=(x+4)
+x=y(2x2)=(x+4)
x=y(2x2)=(x+4)

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||2x2|=|x+4|
x=+y , +x=y(2x2)=(x+4)
x=y , x=y(2x2)=(x+4)

2. Solve the two equations for x

11 additional steps

(2x-2)=(-x+4)

Add to both sides:

(2x-2)+x=(-x+4)+x

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

(2x+x)-2=(-x+4)+x

Permudahkan aritmetik:

3x-2=(-x+4)+x

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

3x-2=(-x+x)+4

Permudahkan aritmetik:

3x2=4

Add to both sides:

(3x-2)+2=4+2

Permudahkan aritmetik:

3x=4+2

Permudahkan aritmetik:

3x=6

Divide both sides by :

(3x)3=63

Permudahkan pecahan:

x=63

8 additional steps

(2x-2)=-(-x+4)

Expand the parentheses:

(2x-2)=x-4

Subtract from both sides:

(2x-2)-x=(x-4)-x

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

(2x-x)-2=(x-4)-x

Permudahkan aritmetik:

x-2=(x-4)-x

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

x-2=(x-x)-4

Permudahkan aritmetik:

x2=4

Add to both sides:

(x-2)+2=-4+2

Permudahkan aritmetik:

x=4+2

Permudahkan aritmetik:

x=2

3. List the solutions

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

4. Graph

Each line represents the function of one side of the equation:
y=|2x2|
y=|x+4|
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.
