Solution for abs(2x+1)=abs(x-1) equation:


Simplifying
abs(2x + 1) = abs(x + -1)

Reorder the terms:
abs(1 + 2x) = abs(x + -1)
(1 * abs + 2x * abs) = abs(x + -1)
(1abs + 2absx) = abs(x + -1)

Reorder the terms:
1abs + 2absx = abs(-1 + x)
1abs + 2absx = (-1 * abs + x * abs)
1abs + 2absx = (-1abs + absx)

Solving
1abs + 2absx = -1abs + absx

Solving for variable 'a'.

Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add 'abs' to each side of the equation.
1abs + abs + 2absx = -1abs + abs + absx

Combine like terms: 1abs + abs = 2abs
2abs + 2absx = -1abs + abs + absx

Combine like terms: -1abs + abs = 0
2abs + 2absx = 0 + absx
2abs + 2absx = absx

Add '-1absx' to each side of the equation.
2abs + 2absx + -1absx = absx + -1absx

Combine like terms: 2absx + -1absx = 1absx
2abs + 1absx = absx + -1absx

Combine like terms: absx + -1absx = 0
2abs + 1absx = 0

Factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), 'abs'.
abs(2 + x) = 0

Subproblem 1

Set the factor 'abs' equal to zero and attempt to solve: Simplifying abs = 0 Solving abs = 0 Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right. Simplifying abs = 0 The solution to this equation could not be determined. This subproblem is being ignored because a solution could not be determined.

Subproblem 2
