Question

Can you please solve the problem
|x+1| +2=4

Answer 1

x = 1, x = -1

Explanation:

Those bars mean absolute value, meaning that whatever's inside them is always positive.

We can now rewrite our equation as:

x + 1 + 2 = 4

Now solve:

x + 1 + 2 = 4

x + 3 = 4

x = 1

x can equal 1 or -1.

Hope this helps!
