  • Q #3: Which of the following is the value of x in the equation below? (left|3x-7 ight|-13=2)

    A. x = 21/3, x=22/3

    B. x = 7/3, x=9/3

    C. x = 15/2, x=9/3

    D. x = 22/3, x=-8/3

    Answer Explanation

    1. Add 13 to both sides to isolate the absolute value term, resulting in ( left|3x-7 ight|= 15)

    2. Consider two cases:

      • When  (+(3x-7)) is positive, solve for x to get (3x = 15 + 7) then (3x=22) (finally x=frac{22}{3})
      • When (-(3x-7)) is negative (but the absolute value makes it positive). Solve for x to get (-3x = 15 - 7) then (-3x=8) (finally x=- frac{8}{3})

    So, there are two possible solutions: (x=frac{22}{3} or x=- frac{8}{3})
