Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
4(|x−3|)−8=8
Step 1: Add 8 to both sides.
4(|x−3|)−8+8=8+8
4(|x−3|)=16
Step 2: Divide both sides by 4.
4(|x−3|)
4
=
16
4
|x−3|=4
Step 3: Solve Absolute Value.
|x−3|=4
We know eitherx−3=4orx−3=−4
x−3=4(Possibility 1)
x−3+3=4+3(Add 3 to both sides)
x=7
x−3=−4(Possibility 2)
x−3+3=−4+3(Add 3 to both sides)
x=−1
Answer:
x=7 or x=−1
