Solution for abs(7-3x)=abs(2x-8) equation:


Simplifying
abs(7 + -3x) = abs(2x + -8)
(7 * abs + -3x * abs) = abs(2x + -8)
(7abs + -3absx) = abs(2x + -8)

Reorder the terms:
7abs + -3absx = abs(-8 + 2x)
7abs + -3absx = (-8 * abs + 2x * abs)
7abs + -3absx = (-8abs + 2absx)

Solving
7abs + -3absx = -8abs + 2absx

Solving for variable 'a'.

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

Add '8abs' to each side of the equation.
7abs + 8abs + -3absx = -8abs + 8abs + 2absx

Combine like terms: 7abs + 8abs = 15abs
15abs + -3absx = -8abs + 8abs + 2absx

Combine like terms: -8abs + 8abs = 0
15abs + -3absx = 0 + 2absx
15abs + -3absx = 2absx

Add '-2absx' to each side of the equation.
15abs + -3absx + -2absx = 2absx + -2absx

Combine like terms: -3absx + -2absx = -5absx
15abs + -5absx = 2absx + -2absx

Combine like terms: 2absx + -2absx = 0
15abs + -5absx = 0

Factor out the Greatest Common Factor (GCF), '5abs'.
5abs(3 + -1x) = 0

Ignore the factor 5.

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.
