INEQUALITIES 3




If │4x – 7 │= 21; Find  x

Solution

±(4x – 7 )= 21

4x -7= 21    OR   –(4x-7) = 21

4x – 7 = 21    OR   -4x+7= 21

4x = 21 + 7    OR   -4x= 21-7

4x = 28     OR   -4x  =  14
4      4                 4        4

x = 7  OR  x = 7/2


Hence x = 6 OR x = 7/2     


TRY THIS...............................


If │4x – 16 │= 24; Find  x
