What is the difference between: |x+3| = 10 & |x| + 3 = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

|x+3| = 10  means the absolute value of x+3 equal 10, so the answer to that means x= -13 or x= 7 (i.e. |-13+3| = |-10| =10, |7+3| = |10| = 10)

|x| + 3 = 10 means the absolute value of just x, so the answer to that would be x= -7 or x= 7 (i.e. |-7|+3 = 7+3 = 10, |7|+3 = 7+3 = 10)

However, take everything I say with a grain of salt, because I struggle some with Absolute Value Equations as well.

I hope this helps give you an idea of what you're looking at, though :)
