Using a graph, we can estimate two solutions for the equation, which are:

x = -2.3

x = 2.8

How to solve the equation with a graph?

Here we want to solve the equation:

-2|x-1| + 3 = x-2/5x-11/5

Graphically.

To do so, we need to graph both equations in the same coordinate axis, and find the points where the graphs intercept.

So, we need to graph:

y = -2|x-1| + 3

y = x-2/5x-11/5

In the image at the end you can see the graph. There we estimate the intercepts at the values x = -2.3 and 2.8
