Solve an Absolute Value Equation #algebra #maths #algebraicequation #math #absolutevalue

We solve an equation involving the absolute value of (4x–7). We go through the steps of isolating the absolute value on one side of the equation then eliminating the absolute value by splitting the equation into two cases. We then solve those two equations to find the two solutions to the original equation.

| 4x - 7 | = 5 => x = { 1/2, 3 }

You don't "simplify", you divide both the parts by 2. Done it that way the whole clip, why stop now?
