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
2|x+3|=|x+4|
without the absolute value bars:

|x|=|y|2|x+3|=|x+4|
x=+y2(x+3)=(x+4)
x=y2(x+3)=(x+4)
+x=y2(x+3)=(x+4)
x=y2((x+3))=(x+4)

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|2|x+3|=|x+4|
x=+y , +x=y2(x+3)=(x+4)
x=y , x=y2(x+3)=(x+4)

2. Solve the two equations for x

9 additional steps

2·(x+3)=(x+4)

Expand the parentheses:

2x+2·3=(x+4)

Permudahkan aritmetik:

2x+6=(x+4)

Subtract from both sides:

(2x+6)-x=(x+4)-x

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

(2x-x)+6=(x+4)-x

Permudahkan aritmetik:

x+6=(x+4)-x

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

x+6=(x-x)+4

Permudahkan aritmetik:

x+6=4

Subtract from both sides:

(x+6)-6=4-6

Permudahkan aritmetik:

x=46

Permudahkan aritmetik:

x=2

12 additional steps

2·(x+3)=-(x+4)

Expand the parentheses:

2x+2·3=-(x+4)

Permudahkan aritmetik:

2x+6=-(x+4)

Expand the parentheses:

2x+6=x4

Add to both sides:

(2x+6)+x=(-x-4)+x

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

(2x+x)+6=(-x-4)+x

Permudahkan aritmetik:

3x+6=(-x-4)+x

Kumpulkan sebutan sejenis:

3x+6=(-x+x)-4

Permudahkan aritmetik:

3x+6=4

Subtract from both sides:

(3x+6)-6=-4-6

Permudahkan aritmetik:

3x=46

Permudahkan aritmetik:

3x=10

Divide both sides by :

(3x)3=-103

Permudahkan pecahan:

x=-103

3. List the solutions

x=-2,-103
(2 solution(s))

4. Graph

Each line represents the function of one side of the equation:
y=2|x+3|
y=|x+4|
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.
