This week I learned how to solve absolute value equations. This question asked to use algebra to solve so I have to find the roots of the equation. Usually you would need to do one positive equation and one negative, but for this case the positive gave me both roots. All I had to do was move the 2 over to the other side of the equation, then factor it out. That gave me both of my roots. The negative one didn’t work for this equation as well.
