I think it’s wrong

The solution to the absolute value equation –0.4|x + 5.75| – 4.3 = –8.7 is

x  =  -16.75  or  x  =  5.25

The given absolute value equation is:

–0.4|x + 5.75| – 4.3 = –8.7

Collect like terms

–0.4|x + 5.75| = –8.7 +  4.3

–0.4|x + 5.75|   =  -4.4

Divide both sides by -0.4

|x + 5.75|  =  -4.4  / -0.4

|x + 5.75|  =  11

x  +  5.75  =  11

x   =  11  -  5.75

x   =   5.25

x  +  5.75  =  -11

x   =  -11  -  5.75

x   =  -16.75

The solution to the absolute value equation –0.4|x + 5.75| – 4.3 = –8.7 is

x  =  -16.75  or  x  =  5.25
