Notice that the Absolute Value of a number is always Absolute Value of xcan be defined algebraically as , if xis positive|x| = 0, if x=0 x, if xis negativeTo solve an Absolute Value equation of the form |x| = cwhere c> 0, use the factthat xcan have two possible values: a positive Value cor a negative Value c. Forinstance, if |x| = 5, then x= 5 or x= an Absolute Value EquationSolve |2x 5| = the Absolute Value equation as two linear Equations and then solve eachlinear equation.
