manuela solved the equation 3 – 2|0.5x + 1.5| = 2 for one solution. her work is shown below.
3 – 2|0.5x + 1.5| = 2
–2|0.5x + 1.5| = –1 |0.5x + 1.5| = 0.5
0.5x + 1.5 = 0.5 0.5x = –1
x = –2
the other solution to the equation is .

For 

|a|=b

Assume

a=b and a=-b

so

3-2|0.5x+1.5|=2

minus 3 both sides

-2|0.5x+1.5|=-1

diide both sides by -2

|0.5x+1.5|=0.5

set negative and postivive

0.5x+1.5=0.5 and 0.5x+1.5=-0.5

solve each

0.5x+1.5=0.5

minus 1.5 both sides

0.5x=-1

times 2 both sides

x=-2

other

0.5x+1.5=-0.5

minus 1.5 from oth sides

0.5x=-2

times 2 both sides

x=-4

the solutions are x=-2 and x=-4 

The answer is -4 just took the quiz
