Solution for abs(3x+60)=abs(4x+20) equation:


Simplifying
abs(3x + 60) = abs(4x + 20)

Reorder the terms:
abs(60 + 3x) = abs(4x + 20)
(60 * abs + 3x * abs) = abs(4x + 20)
(60abs + 3absx) = abs(4x + 20)

Reorder the terms:
60abs + 3absx = abs(20 + 4x)
60abs + 3absx = (20 * abs + 4x * abs)
60abs + 3absx = (20abs + 4absx)

Solving
60abs + 3absx = 20abs + 4absx

Solving for variable 'a'.

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

Add '-20abs' to each side of the equation.
60abs + -20abs + 3absx = 20abs + -20abs + 4absx

Combine like terms: 60abs + -20abs = 40abs
40abs + 3absx = 20abs + -20abs + 4absx

Combine like terms: 20abs + -20abs = 0
40abs + 3absx = 0 + 4absx
40abs + 3absx = 4absx

Add '-4absx' to each side of the equation.
40abs + 3absx + -4absx = 4absx + -4absx

Combine like terms: 3absx + -4absx = -1absx
40abs + -1absx = 4absx + -4absx

Combine like terms: 4absx + -4absx = 0
40abs + -1absx = 0

Factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), 'abs'.
abs(40 + -1x) = 0
