4. Solving Absolute Value Equations
Sign In
An absolute value equation can be broken down into a midpoint and a distance from the midpoint to the solutions.
C
Notice that the left-hand side of the equation is in the form |x-a|. Keeping that in mind, let's take a look at our equation. |x- 2|= 4 Now, we can determine the midpoint as 2 and the distance from the midpoint as 4.
This number line corresponds with option C.
