Answer:
X1= -4, X2= 8
Step-by-step explanation:
2|x-2|=12
Divide both sides of the equation by 2
|x-2| = 6
rewrite the absolute value equation as two separate equations, one positive and the other negative
x-2=6
x-2= -6
solve the equation for x
x-2=6 x-2= -6
x=8 x= -4
the final solutions are
X1= -4, X2= 8
