Solve |x+4|=6 need help for a quiz

Sagot :

Answer:

down below

Step-by-step explanation:

set up two equations:

x + 4 = 6                    x + 4 = -6

solve both:

x = 2                          x = -10

plug it back in to the original equation:

|2 + 4| = 6.                 |-10 + 4| = -6

|6| = 6.                       |-6| = -6

6 = 6.                         since absolute value is always positive:

correct.                     |6| = -6

                                6 does not = -6

write both of these down if you need to show your work
