Answers

1. Answer :

|-9|  =  9

2. Answer :

|9|  =  9

3. Answer :

|-17 + 8|  =  |-9|

|-17 + 8|  =  9

4. Answer :

|28 - 13|  =  |15|

|28 - 13|  =  15

5. Answer :

Given : |x| is an integer between 0 and 3. 

Then, we have

|x|  =  1  and  |x|  =  2

Solve for x in |x|  =  1. 

Solve for x in |x|  =  2. 

So, the possible values of x are 

-2, -1, 1, 2

6. Answer :

Given : |2x - 1| is an integer between 3 and 6. 

Then, we have

|2x - 1|  =  4  and  |2x - 1|  =  5

Solve for x in |2x - 1|  =  4. 

Solve for x in |2x - 1|  =  5. 

So, the possible values of x are 

-2, -3/2, 5/2, 3

7. Answer :

|3x + 5|  =  7

The expression inside the absolute value can be either positive or negative. 

Then, we have

So, the values of x are 

-4, 2/3

8. Answer :

|7x|  =  21

The expression inside the absolute value can be either positive or negative. 

Then, we have

So, the values of x are 

-3, 3 

9. Answer :

2|3x +4|  =  7

Divide each side by 2. 

|3x + 4|  =  4

The expression inside the absolute value can be either positive or negative. 

Then, we have

So, the values of x are 

-8/3, 0

10. Answer :

3|5x - 6| - 4  =  5

Add 4 to each side.

3|5x - 6|  =  9

Divide each side by 3.

|5x - 6|  =  3

So, the values of x are 

3/5, 9/5
