Question

Solve the equation below. |x+3|=5

Answer 1

Explanation:

1[x+3] =5

x+3 =5

x=5-3

x=2

Answer 2

Let;

• 
  `|x-a|=b`

can be written as;

• 
  `x-a=b` and
  `x-a=-b` if
  `b > 0`

We've got two different equations. If we solve them, we'll get the result.

• 
  `x+3=5`
• 
  `x+3=-5`

According to this inequality, the elements containing our solution set should be as follows;

• 
  `x_(1)=-8`
• 
  `x_(2)=2`
