Q. Solve for all values of x x in simplest form.\newline55x4+7=62 5|5 x-4|+7=62 \newlineAnswer: x= x=
  1. Isolate absolute value expression: Isolate the absolute value expression.\newlineSubtract 77 from both sides of the equation.\newline55x4+77=6275|5x - 4| + 7 - 7 = 62 - 7\newline55x4=555|5x - 4| = 55
  2. Divide by 55: Divide both sides by 55 to solve for the absolute value expression.\newline(55x4)/5=55/5(5|5x - 4|) / 5 = 55 / 5\newline5x4=11|5x - 4| = 11
  3. Set up two equations: Set up two equations to account for the absolute value. 5x4=115x - 4 = 11 and 5x4=115x - 4 = -11
  4. Solve first equation for x: Solve the first equation for x.\newline5x4=115x - 4 = 11\newlineAdd 44 to both sides.\newline5x=155x = 15\newlineDivide by 55.\newlinex=155x = \frac{15}{5}\newlinex=3x = 3
  5. Solve second equation for x: Solve the second equation for x.\newline5x4=115x - 4 = -11\newlineAdd 44 to both sides.\newline5x=11+45x = -11 + 4\newline5x=75x = -7\newlineDivide by 55.\newlinex=7/5x = -7 / 5\newlinex=1.4x = -1.4
