Capitolo 2, Problema 79
The rule for rewriting an absolute value equation without absolute value bars can be extended to equations with two sets of absolute value bars: If u and v represent algebraic expressions, then |u| = |v| is equivalent to u = v or u = - v. Use this to solve the equations in Exercises 77–84. |4x - 3| = |4x - 5|
Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Recognize that the equation |4x - 3| = |4x - 5| can be rewritten using the property that if |u| = |v|, then u = v or u = -v. Here, let u = 4x - 3 and v = 4x - 5.
Set up the two separate equations based on the property: 4x - 3 = 4x - 5 and 4x - 3 = -(4x - 5).
Solve the first equation: 4x - 3 = 4x - 5. Subtract 4x from both sides to isolate constants and check for solutions.
Solve the second equation: 4x - 3 = -4x + 5. Combine like terms by adding 4x to both sides and adding 3 to both sides to isolate x.
Check the solutions obtained from both equations to ensure they satisfy the original absolute value equation.

Absolute Value Definition
The absolute value of a number or expression represents its distance from zero on the number line, always yielding a non-negative result. For any expression u, |u| equals u if u is non-negative, and -u if u is negative. This concept is fundamental when dealing with equations involving absolute values.

Equations Involving Two Absolute Values
When an equation has two absolute value expressions set equal, such as |u| = |v|, it implies that either u = v or u = -v. This property allows us to rewrite the equation without absolute value bars and solve two separate linear equations, covering all possible solutions.
