Answer:

Explanation:

Applying absolute value rule the solutions are:

x + 1/2 = 3/2/3 or x + 1/2 = -3 2/3

Changing to fractions:

x + 1/2 = 11/3 or x + 1/2 = -11/3

and then changing to a common denominator

x + 3/6 = 22/6 or x + 3/6 = -22/6

Solve left equation first:

x + 3/6 - 3/6 = 22/6 - 3/6

x = 19/6 or 3 1/6

Solve the right equation:

x + 3/6 - 3/6 = -22/6 - 3/6

x = -25/6 or -4 1/6

So the two solutions are:

19/6 and -25/6 as improper fractions

And

as mixed numbers: 3 1/6 and -4 1/6
