Question

Solve
2|x| = 3 i need help

Answer 1

`x = 1 (1)/(2) \: \\ x = - 1 (1)/(2)`

Explanation:

If we're solving for x, then we should divide both sides by 2 and then simplify.

`(2 |x| = 3) / 2`

`|x| = (3)/(2)`

This gives us the final answer of

`x = ±(3)/(2)`

Which can be simplified into:

`x = 1(1)/(2) , \: - 1(1)/(2)`

Answer 2

Answer:
`x_1 = -(3)/(2) \\x_2 = (3)/(2) \\\\`

X could equal either -3/2, or 3/2 because x is made into an absolute value
