Explanation:
|x-4|=6x+16 To find the absolute value :
x - 4 = 6x + 16 or x - 4 = -6x - 16 for first equation
x - 4 = 6x + 16 export like terms to the same side of the equation
-4 - 16 = 6x - x (The terms chages signs from negative to positive and from positive to negative when exported to the other sideof the equation)
-20 = 5x divide by 5
-4 = x
For the second equation
x - 4 = -6x - 16 export like terms to the same side of the equation
x + 6x = -16 + 4
7x = -12
x = 1.7 approximately
