∣5x+4∣=0 equation
The teacher will be very surprised to see your correct solution 😉
The solution
Detail solution
For every modulo expressions in the equation
allow cases, when this expressions ">=0" or "<0",
solve the resulting equation.
1.
$$5 x + 4 \geq 0$$
or
$$- \frac{4}{5} \leq x \wedge x < \infty$$
we get the equation
$$5 x + 4 = 0$$
after simplifying we get
$$5 x + 4 = 0$$
the solution in this interval:
$$x_{1} = - \frac{4}{5}$$
2.
$$5 x + 4 < 0$$
or
$$-\infty < x \wedge x < - \frac{4}{5}$$
we get the equation
$$- 5 x - 4 = 0$$
after simplifying we get
$$- 5 x - 4 = 0$$
the solution in this interval:
$$x_{2} = - \frac{4}{5}$$
but x2 not in the inequality interval
The final answer:
$$x_{1} = - \frac{4}{5}$$
