How to find the absolute value of |2x+3|=13

x=5 or x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

|2x+3|=13

There are two solutions to this problem, one positive and one negative

2x+3 =13   and 2x+3 = -13

Subtract 3 from all sides

2x+3-3 = 13-3     2x+3-3 = -13-3

2x = 10                2x = -16

Divide each side by 2

2x/2=10/2           2x/2 = -16/2

x = 5                    x = -8

3/5
