Question

The table shows the solution to the equation |2x − 3| − 1 = 2:

Step- |2x − 3| = 2 + 1
Step 2- |2x − 3| = 3
Step 3- 2x − 3 = 3 or 2x + 3 = 3
Step 4- 2x = 6 or 2x = 0
Step 5- x = 3 or x = 0
Which is the first incorrect step? Select one: a. Step 1
b. Step 3
c. Step 5
d. Solution is correct

Answer 1

Step 3 is incorrect

|2x − 3| = 3

2x-3 =3 and 3x-3 = -3 is the correct step here
