Exact form: w=1
w=-1

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
|3w+8|=|3w2|
without the absolute value bars:

|x|=|y||3w+8|=|3w2|
x=+y(3w+8)=(3w2)
x=y(3w+8)=(3w2)
+x=y(3w+8)=(3w2)
x=y(3w+8)=(3w2)

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||3w+8|=|3w2|
x=+y , +x=y(3w+8)=(3w2)
x=y , x=y(3w+8)=(3w2)

2. Solve the two equations for w

5 additional steps

(3w+8)=(3w-2)

Subtract from both sides:

(3w+8)-3w=(3w-2)-3w

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

(3w-3w)+8=(3w-2)-3w

Permudahkan aritmetik:

8=(3w-2)-3w

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

8=(3w-3w)-2

Permudahkan aritmetik:

8=2

Pernyataan ini palsu:

8=2

The equation is false so it has no solution.

11 additional steps

(3w+8)=-(3w-2)

Expand the parentheses:

(3w+8)=-3w+2

Add to both sides:

(3w+8)+3w=(-3w+2)+3w

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

(3w+3w)+8=(-3w+2)+3w

Permudahkan aritmetik:

6w+8=(-3w+2)+3w

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

6w+8=(-3w+3w)+2

Permudahkan aritmetik:

6w+8=2

Subtract from both sides:

(6w+8)-8=2-8

Permudahkan aritmetik:

6w=28

Permudahkan aritmetik:

6w=6

Divide both sides by :

(6w)6=-66

Permudahkan pecahan:

w=-66

Permudahkan pecahan:

w=1

3. Graph

Each line represents the function of one side of the equation:
y=|3w+8|
y=|3w2|
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.
