Question

Solve for x: 2|x − 3| + 1 = 7 (5 points)

Select one:
a. x = 0, x = 6
b. x = −1, x = 6
c. x = 0, x = 9
d. No solutions

Answer 1

I think it’s A hope this helps

Answer 2

Subtract 1 from both sides to get 2|x-3| = 6

Divide both sides by 2 to get |x-3| = 3

Since there is an absolute value, the answer is either x - 3 = 3 or x - 3 = -3. Try each to find the answer.

x - 3 = 3 → add 3 to both side to get x = 6

x - 3 = -3 → add 3 to both sides to get x = 0

Therefore the answer is A
