8|x-6|-9=4 \\ \\ 8|x - 6| = 4 + 9 \\ \\ 8|x - 6| = 13 \\ \\ |x - 6| = (13)/(8) \\ \\ ----- \\ \\ x - 6 = (13)/(8) \\ \\ x = (13)/(8) + 6 \\ \\ x = (61)/(8) \\ \\ ----- \\ \\ -x + 6 = (13)/(6) \\ \\ 6 - x = (13)/(8) \\ \\ -x = (13)/(8) - 6 \\ \\ -x = - (35)/(8) \\ \\ x = (35)/(8) \\ \\ ----- \\ \\ x = (35)/(8) , (61)/(8) \\ \\

The answer is: x = 35/8 and x = 61/8.
