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
|3x+4|=|5x+2|
without the absolute value bars:

|x|=|y||3x+4|=|5x+2|
x=+y(3x+4)=(5x+2)
x=y(3x+4)=(5x+2)
+x=y(3x+4)=(5x+2)
x=y(3x+4)=(5x+2)

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||3x+4|=|5x+2|
x=+y , +x=y(3x+4)=(5x+2)
x=y , x=y(3x+4)=(5x+2)

2. Solve the two equations for x

12 additional steps

(3x+4)=(5x+2)

Subtract from both sides:

(3x+4)-5x=(5x+2)-5x

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

(3x-5x)+4=(5x+2)-5x

Permudahkan aritmetik:

-2x+4=(5x+2)-5x

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

-2x+4=(5x-5x)+2

Permudahkan aritmetik:

2x+4=2

Subtract from both sides:

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

Permudahkan aritmetik:

2x=24

Permudahkan aritmetik:

2x=2

Divide both sides by :

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

Hapuskan tanda negatif:

2x2=-2-2

Permudahkan pecahan:

x=-2-2

Hapuskan tanda negatif:

x=22

Permudahkan pecahan:

x=1

12 additional steps

(3x+4)=-(5x+2)

Expand the parentheses:

(3x+4)=-5x-2

Add to both sides:

(3x+4)+5x=(-5x-2)+5x

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

(3x+5x)+4=(-5x-2)+5x

Permudahkan aritmetik:

8x+4=(-5x-2)+5x

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

8x+4=(-5x+5x)-2

Permudahkan aritmetik:

8x+4=2

Subtract from both sides:

(8x+4)-4=-2-4

Permudahkan aritmetik:

8x=24

Permudahkan aritmetik:

8x=6

Divide both sides by :

(8x)8=-68

Permudahkan pecahan:

x=-68

3. List the solutions

x=1,-34
(2 solution(s))

4. Graph

Each line represents the function of one side of the equation:
y=|3x+4|
y=|5x+2|
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.
