Question

|5 + z| + 3 = 10 solve

Answer 1

z = 2

Explanation:

The | | represents absolute value which means the number's distance from 0. Any number's absolute value is going to be a positive number.

So, 5 + what number plus 3 gives you 10?

10 - 3 = 7 and 7 - 5 = 2.

So, |5 + 2| + 3 = 10.

The distance from 5 and 0 is 5

Distance from 2 and 0 is 2
