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|=|x6|
without the absolute value bars:

|x|=|y||3x|=|x6|
x=+y(3x)=(x6)
x=y(3x)=(x6)
+x=y(3x)=(x6)
x=y(3x)=(x6)

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|=|x6|
x=+y , +x=y(3x)=(x6)
x=y , x=y(3x)=(x6)

2. Solve the two equations for x

7 additional steps

3x=(x-6)

Subtract from both sides:

(3x)-x=(x-6)-x

Permudahkan aritmetik:

2x=(x-6)-x

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

2x=(x-x)-6

Permudahkan aritmetik:

2x=6

Divide both sides by :

(2x)2=-62

Permudahkan pecahan:

x=-62

x=3

8 additional steps

3x=-(x-6)

Expand the parentheses:

3x=x+6

Add to both sides:

(3x)+x=(-x+6)+x

Permudahkan aritmetik:

4x=(-x+6)+x

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

4x=(-x+x)+6

Permudahkan aritmetik:

4x=6

Divide both sides by :

(4x)4=64

Permudahkan pecahan:

x=64

Cari faktor sepunya terbesar bagi pembilang dan penyebut:

x=(3·2)(2·2)

Faktorkan keluar dan hapuskan faktor sepunya terbesar:

x=32

3. List the solutions

x=-3,32
(2 solution(s))

4. Graph

Each line represents the function of one side of the equation:
y=|3x|
y=|x6|
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.
