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
|x+2|=5|x2|
without the absolute value bars:

|x|=|y||x+2|=5|x2|
x=+y(x+2)=5(x2)
x=y(x+2)=5((x2))
+x=y(x+2)=5(x2)
x=y(x+2)=5(x2)

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||x+2|=5|x2|
x=+y , +x=y(x+2)=5(x2)
x=y , x=y(x+2)=5((x2))

2. Solve the two equations for x

15 additional steps

(x+2)=5·(x-2)

Expand the parentheses:

(x+2)=5x+5·-2

Permudahkan aritmetik:

(x+2)=5x-10

Subtract from both sides:

(x+2)-5x=(5x-10)-5x

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

(x-5x)+2=(5x-10)-5x

Permudahkan aritmetik:

-4x+2=(5x-10)-5x

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

-4x+2=(5x-5x)-10

Permudahkan aritmetik:

4x+2=10

Subtract from both sides:

(-4x+2)-2=-10-2

Permudahkan aritmetik:

4x=102

Permudahkan aritmetik:

4x=12

Divide both sides by :

(-4x)-4=-12-4

Hapuskan tanda negatif:

4x4=-12-4

Permudahkan pecahan:

x=-12-4

Hapuskan tanda negatif:

x=124

16 additional steps

(x+2)=5·(-(x-2))

Expand the parentheses:

(x+2)=5·(-x+2)

(x+2)=5·-x+5·2

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

(x+2)=(5·-1)x+5·2

Darabkan pekali:

(x+2)=-5x+5·2

Permudahkan aritmetik:

(x+2)=-5x+10

Add to both sides:

(x+2)+5x=(-5x+10)+5x

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

(x+5x)+2=(-5x+10)+5x

Permudahkan aritmetik:

6x+2=(-5x+10)+5x

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

6x+2=(-5x+5x)+10

Permudahkan aritmetik:

6x+2=10

Subtract from both sides:

(6x+2)-2=10-2

Permudahkan aritmetik:

6x=102

Permudahkan aritmetik:

6x=8

Divide both sides by :

(6x)6=86

Permudahkan pecahan:

x=86

Cari faktor sepunya terbesar bagi pembilang dan penyebut:

x=(4·2)(3·2)

Faktorkan keluar dan hapuskan faktor sepunya terbesar:

x=43

3. List the solutions

x=3,43
(2 solution(s))

4. Graph

Each line represents the function of one side of the equation:
y=|x+2|
y=5|x2|
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.
