Other Ways to Solve

Absolute value equations

Penjelasan langkah demi langkah

1. Rewrite the equation with one absolute value terms on each side

|3x4||x5|=0

Add |x5| to both sides of the equation:

|3x4||x5|+|x5|=|x5|

Permudahkan aritmetik

|3x4|=|x5|

2. 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
|3x4|=|x5|
without the absolute value bars:

|x|=|y||3x4|=|x5|
x=+y(3x4)=(x5)
x=y(3x4)=((x5))
+x=y(3x4)=(x5)
x=y(3x4)=(x5)

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||3x4|=|x5|
x=+y , +x=y(3x4)=(x5)
x=y , x=y(3x4)=((x5))

3. Solve the two equations for x

9 additional steps

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

Subtract from both sides:

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

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

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

Permudahkan aritmetik:

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

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

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

Permudahkan aritmetik:

2x4=5

Add to both sides:

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

Permudahkan aritmetik:

2x=5+4

Permudahkan aritmetik:

2x=1

Divide both sides by :

(2x)2=-12

Permudahkan pecahan:

x=-12

10 additional steps

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

Expand the parentheses:

(3x-4)=-x+5

Add to both sides:

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

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

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

Permudahkan aritmetik:

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

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

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

Permudahkan aritmetik:

4x4=5

Add to both sides:

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

Permudahkan aritmetik:

4x=5+4

Permudahkan aritmetik:

4x=9

Divide both sides by :

(4x)4=94

Permudahkan pecahan:

x=94

4. List the solutions

x=-12,94
(2 solution(s))

5. Graph

Each line represents the function of one side of the equation:
y=|3x4|
y=|x5|
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.
