Question

Solve the absolute value equation. 4|4x - 3| - 8 = -4​

Answer 1

x =
`1,(1)/(2)`

Explanation:

`4|4x-3|-8=-4\\`

Add 8 to both sides;

4|4x - 3| = 4 4|4x - 3| = -4

Divide both sides by 4;

4x - 3 = 1 4x - 3 = -1

Add 3 to both sides;

4x = 4 4x = 2

Divide both sides by 4;

x = 1 x =
`(1)/(2)`
