Answer:

{-2/3, 10/3}

Explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

|3x−4|=6

Solve Absolute Value.

|3x−4|=6

We know either3x−4=6or3x−4=−6

3x−4=6(Possibility 1)

3x−4+4=6+4(Add 4 to both sides)

3x=10

3x/3 = 10/3

(Divide both sides by 3)

x=10/3

3x−4=−6(Possibility 2)

3x−4+4=−6+4(Add 4 to both sides)

3x=−2

3x/3 = −2/3

(Divide both sides by 3)

x= −2/3
