Answer :
|x + 2| + 16 = 1
- 16 - 16
|x + 2| = -15
x + 2 = -15 U x + 2 = 15
- 2 - 2 - 2 - 2
x = -17 x = 13
|2x + 6| - 4 = 20
+ 4 + 4
|2x + 6| = 24
2x + 6 = 24 U 2x + 6 = -24
- 6 - 6 - 6 - 6
2x = 18 2x = -30
2 2 2 2
x = 9 x = -15
- 16 - 16
|x + 2| = -15
x + 2 = -15 U x + 2 = 15
- 2 - 2 - 2 - 2
x = -17 x = 13
|2x + 6| - 4 = 20
+ 4 + 4
|2x + 6| = 24
2x + 6 = 24 U 2x + 6 = -24
- 6 - 6 - 6 - 6
2x = 18 2x = -30
2 2 2 2
x = 9 x = -15
