Solve for x.

1 + | 2 + x | = 9

a.) x = 6
b.) x = 4
c.) x = 7
d.) x = 5
e.) x = -10
f.) x = -8
g.) x = -11
h.) x = -9

Respuesta :

A and E

The absolute value of 2+x must equal 8 once we subtract 1 from each side.

This means 2+x can equal -8 or 8. If it is -8, x will equal -10, and if it is 8, x will equal 6.

Answer:

the answer is 4.
