Question

Solve the following absolute value equation.
7(3-12x)=28
The solution set is

Answer 1

Answer: x = -1/12

Explanation:

1 Divide both sides by 7

3 - 12x = 28/7

Then simplify 28/7 to 4

3 - 12x = 4

Then Subtract 3 from both sides

-12x = 4 - 3

then simplify 3 - 4 to 1

-12x = 1

then divide both sides by -12

x = -1/12
