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
|x|=|2x1|
without the absolute value bars:

|x|=|y||x|=|2x1|
x=+y(x)=(2x1)
x=y(x)=(2x1)
+x=y(x)=(2x1)
x=y(x)=(2x1)

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|=|2x1|
x=+y , +x=y(x)=(2x1)
x=y , x=y(x)=(2x1)

2. Solve the two equations for x

6 additional steps

x=(2x-1)

Subtract from both sides:

x-2x=(2x-1)-2x

Permudahkan aritmetik:

-x=(2x-1)-2x

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

-x=(2x-2x)-1

Permudahkan aritmetik:

x=1

Multiply both sides by :

-x·-1=-1·-1

Buang nilai satu:

x=-1·-1

Permudahkan aritmetik:

x=1

6 additional steps

x=-(2x-1)

Expand the parentheses:

x=2x+1

Add to both sides:

x+2x=(-2x+1)+2x

Permudahkan aritmetik:

3x=(-2x+1)+2x

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

3x=(-2x+2x)+1

Permudahkan aritmetik:

3x=1

Divide both sides by :

(3x)3=13

Permudahkan pecahan:

x=13

3. List the solutions

x=1,13
(2 solution(s))

4. Graph

Each line represents the function of one side of the equation:
y=|x|
y=|2x1|
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.
