Question

Solve this equation 4+4|2x−1|=12.

Answer 1

x=1.5 or3/4

Explanation:

using bodmas

remove the bracket: 4+4=(2x-1)=12

4+8x-4=12

8x=12+4-4

8x=12

x=3/2 or 1.5

Answer 2

step 1: 8|2x-1| = 12
step 2: 16x-8 = 12
step 3: 16x =12+8
step 4: 16x = 20
divide both sides by 16
step 5: x = 5/4 or 1 1/4
