Question

Find a statement that is equivalent to the absolute value equation |9x−9|=7.

Choose the statement that is equivalent to |9x-9|=7

Answer 1

Answer:9x-9=7 or 9x-9=-7

Explanation:

An absolute value is the distance from zero, therefore the answer can not be negative. In this case, 9x-9=7 and 9x-9=-7 both work, because 7 and -7 are the same distance from zero.
