The solutions to the given absolute value problems are;
1) Option B
2) Option A
3) Option B
4) Option A
- This is an absolute value problem.
Absolute value is simply the distance on the number line from the origin regardless of whether it is positive or not.
- 1) |x| + 5 = 18
Subtract 5 from both sides to get;
|x| = 13
Since it's absolute value, then it means that;
x = ± 13
Thus; x = 13 or -13
- 2) |y + 4|< 1
Since it's absolute value, then it means that;
± (y + 4) < 1
Thus;
-y - 4 < 1 or y + 4 < 1
Simplifying gives;
-5 < y or y < -3
Thus combining both to get;
-5 < y < -3
- 3) |2t| - 5 = 7
Add 5 to both sides to get;
|2t| = 12
Since absolute value, it means;
±2t = 12
-2t = 12 or +2t = 12
Simplifying gives;
t = -6 or 6
- 4) |a| - ³/₄ = -⁵/₈
Add ³/₄ to both sides to get;
|a| = ¹/₈
Since absolute value, it means;
a = ¹/₈ or -¹/₈
