Answer:

If problem is "-|2x+3|+8=12"

then there is (no solution.)

Explanation:

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

−|2x+3|+8=12

Step 1: Add -8 to both sides.

−|2x+3|+8+−8=12+−8

−|2x+3|=4

Step 2: Divide both sides by -1.

−|2x+3|=4

-1 -1

|2x+3|=−4

Step 3: Solve Absolute Value.

|2x+3|=−4

No solutions Because absolute value is less than 0.
