|3−x|=8
|−x+3|=8Solve Absolute Value.|−x+3|=8
We know either −x+3=8 or−x+3=−8−x+3=8 (Possibility 1) −x+3−3=8−3 (Subtract 3 from both sides)−x=5−x−1=5−1
(Divide both sides by -1) x=−5−x+3=−8 (Possibility 2) −x+3−3=−8−3 (Subtract 3 from both sides) −x=−11−x−1=−11−1 (Divide both sides by -1)x=11Answer:x=−5 or x=11
