|х| + 3 = 5|х| = 5 - 3|х| = 2x can either be 2 or -2
|2x| + 3 = 9|2x| = 9 - 3|2x| = 62x can either be 6 or -62x = 6x = 32x = -6x = -3
у - 2 = 1у = 1 + 2у = 3
Therefore, the solutions are:x can be 2, -2, 3, or -3у is 3
|х| + 3 = 5
|х| = 5 - 3
|х| = 2
x can either be 2 or -2
|2x| + 3 = 9
|2x| = 9 - 3
|2x| = 6
2x can either be 6 or -6
2x = 6
x = 3
2x = -6
x = -3
у - 2 = 1
у = 1 + 2
у = 3
Therefore, the solutions are:
x can be 2, -2, 3, or -3
у is 3
