Answer :

The solutions to the modulus functions are 7/ 3, 7 and 0. 6 accordingly

How to solve the equations

Note that a modulus function gives the size or magnitude of a number irrespective of its sign.

It is also called the absolute value  of a given function. It is denoted by |x|

1. |2−3x|=9

First, collect like terms

|-3x| = 9 - 2

|-3x| = 7

Make 'x' the subject

|x| = -7/3

|x| = 7/ 3

2. 8+|2x−2|=20

collect like terms

|2x - 2| = 20 -8

|2x| = 12+ 2

|2x| = 14

Make 'x' the subject

|x| = 7

3. 35|x+1|=56

|x + 1| = 56/35

|x + 1| = 1. 6

Make 'x' the subject

|x| = 1. 6 - 1

|x| = 0. 6

Thus, the solutions to the modulus functions are 7/ 3, 7 and 0. 6 accordingly.
