Question

| 7-2x | =5 please help help me with this maths problem guys​

Answer 1

Answer:

2x-7=5

2x=5+7

2x=12

x=12/2

x=6

That's the correct answer

Answer 2

Answer:

Answer is

Step-by-step explanation:

STEP

1

:

Rearrange this Absolute Value Equation

Absolute value equalitiy entered

|-2x+7| = 5

STEP

2

:

Clear the Absolute Value Bars

Clear the absolute-value bars by splitting the equation into its two cases, one for the Positive case and the other for the Negative case.

The Absolute Value term is |-2x+7|

For the Negative case we'll use -(-2x+7)

For the Positive case we'll use (-2x+7)

STEP

3

:

Solve the Negative Case

-(-2x+7) = 5

Multiply

2x-7 = 5

Rearrange and Add up

2x = 12

Divide both sides by 2

x = 6

STEP

4

:

Solve the Positive Case

(-2x+7) = 5

Rearrange and Add up

-2x = -2

Divide both sides by 2

-x = -1

Multiply both sides by (-1)

x = 1

Which is the solution for the Positive Case

STEP

5

:

Wrap up the solution

x=6

x=1
