Question

solve for x.

\\|3x + 9| = 6\\

if there is more than one solution, separate them with commas.
if there is no solution, click on
o solution\.

\\(x = \square\\)

Explanation:

Set up the two cases for the absolute value

$$ 3x + 9 = 6 \quad \text{or} \quad 3x + 9 = -6 $$

Solve the first case

$$
LATEXBLOCK0
$$

Solve the second case

$$
LATEXBLOCK1
$$

Answer:

Solve for \(x\).

$$|3x+9|=6$$

If there is more than one solution, separate them with commas.
If there is no solution, click on "No solution".
