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
|5x4|=|9x+2|
without the absolute value bars:

|x|=|y||5x4|=|9x+2|
x=+y(5x4)=(9x+2)
x=y(5x4)=(9x+2)
+x=y(5x4)=(9x+2)
x=y(5x4)=(9x+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||5x4|=|9x+2|
x=+y , +x=y(5x4)=(9x+2)
x=y , x=y(5x4)=(9x+2)

2. Solve the two equations for x

13 additional steps

(5x-4)=(9x+2)

Subtract from both sides:

(5x-4)-9x=(9x+2)-9x

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

(5x-9x)-4=(9x+2)-9x

Permudahkan aritmetik:

-4x-4=(9x+2)-9x

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

-4x-4=(9x-9x)+2

Permudahkan aritmetik:

4x4=2

Add to both sides:

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

Permudahkan aritmetik:

4x=2+4

Permudahkan aritmetik:

4x=6

Divide both sides by :

(-4x)-4=6-4

Hapuskan tanda negatif:

4x4=6-4

Permudahkan pecahan:

x=6-4

Pindahkan tanda negatif dari penyebut ke pembilang:

x=-64

Cari faktor sepunya terbesar bagi pembilang dan penyebut:

x=(-3·2)(2·2)

Faktorkan keluar dan hapuskan faktor sepunya terbesar:

x=-32

12 additional steps

(5x-4)=-(9x+2)

Expand the parentheses:

(5x-4)=-9x-2

Add to both sides:

(5x-4)+9x=(-9x-2)+9x

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

(5x+9x)-4=(-9x-2)+9x

Permudahkan aritmetik:

14x-4=(-9x-2)+9x

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

14x-4=(-9x+9x)-2

Permudahkan aritmetik:

14x4=2

Add to both sides:

(14x-4)+4=-2+4

Permudahkan aritmetik:

14x=2+4

Permudahkan aritmetik:

14x=2

Divide both sides by :

(14x)14=214

Permudahkan pecahan:

x=214

Cari faktor sepunya terbesar bagi pembilang dan penyebut:

x=(1·2)(7·2)

Faktorkan keluar dan hapuskan faktor sepunya terbesar:

x=17

3. List the solutions

x=-32,17
(2 solution(s))

4. Graph

Each line represents the function of one side of the equation:
y=|5x4|
y=|9x+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.
