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
|2x7|=|8x5|
without the absolute value bars:

|x|=|y||2x7|=|8x5|
x=+y(2x7)=(8x5)
x=y(2x7)=(8x5)
+x=y(2x7)=(8x5)
x=y(2x7)=(8x5)

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||2x7|=|8x5|
x=+y , +x=y(2x7)=(8x5)
x=y , x=y(2x7)=(8x5)

2. Solve the two equations for x

13 additional steps

(2x-7)=(8x-5)

Subtract from both sides:

(2x-7)-8x=(8x-5)-8x

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

(2x-8x)-7=(8x-5)-8x

Permudahkan aritmetik:

-6x-7=(8x-5)-8x

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

-6x-7=(8x-8x)-5

Permudahkan aritmetik:

6x7=5

Add to both sides:

(-6x-7)+7=-5+7

Permudahkan aritmetik:

6x=5+7

Permudahkan aritmetik:

6x=2

Divide both sides by :

(-6x)-6=2-6

Hapuskan tanda negatif:

6x6=2-6

Permudahkan pecahan:

x=2-6

Pindahkan tanda negatif dari penyebut ke pembilang:

x=-26

12 additional steps

(2x-7)=-(8x-5)

Expand the parentheses:

(2x-7)=-8x+5

Add to both sides:

(2x-7)+8x=(-8x+5)+8x

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

(2x+8x)-7=(-8x+5)+8x

Permudahkan aritmetik:

10x-7=(-8x+5)+8x

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

10x-7=(-8x+8x)+5

Permudahkan aritmetik:

10x7=5

Add to both sides:

(10x-7)+7=5+7

Permudahkan aritmetik:

10x=5+7

Permudahkan aritmetik:

10x=12

Divide both sides by :

(10x)10=1210

Permudahkan pecahan:

x=1210

Cari faktor sepunya terbesar bagi pembilang dan penyebut:

x=(6·2)(5·2)

Faktorkan keluar dan hapuskan faktor sepunya terbesar:

x=65

3. List the solutions

x=-13,65
(2 solution(s))

4. Graph

Each line represents the function of one side of the equation:
y=|2x7|
y=|8x5|
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.
