Solution
= (1.44 x -3) x 10⁵ x 10^-7
=-4.32 x 10^5-7
=-4.32 x 10^-2

What is the solution set for |2x – 3| = 15?

What is the solution set for |2x – 3| = 15?

Solution
2x-3= 15
2x = 15 +3
2x = 18
divide by 2 both side, we have
x = 9
or
2x-3= -15
2x = -15 + 3
2x = -12
divide by 2 both side, we have
x = -6
So,
Solution Set = {(9,-6)}
