Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

x = 8, x = -4

Discussion:

5 | x - 2| = 30              => divide both sides by 5

|x -2| = 30/5 = 6          => |x-2| = 6

(x-2) = 6                       => x = 2 +6

x = 8

or

(x-2) = -6                     => x = 2 + -6

x = -4

Thank you,

MrB

Answer is x=8 and the other -4
