RATIONALE
To solve this equation, we will need to create two separate equations without absolute
value bars.
One equation will contain the expression exactly as it appears within the absolute value
bars. The second equation must consider the case when the expression has the opposite
value. Next, solve each equation separately, starting with .
To solve for , start by adding to both sides.
On the left, we have only . On the right plus is . Then divide both sides by
to isolate .
The solution for the first equation is . The same process can be applied to the
second equation .

binomials. Begin by multiplying the first two terms, and .
times equals . Next, multiply the two outside terms, and .
times equals because when you multiply two terms with the same number
under the radical symbol, the result is just that number. Next, multiply the two inside
terms, and .
times equals . Next, multiply the last two terms, and .
equals . Now we can combine all four parts.
After using FOIL, is equal to . Next, identify any
like terms and combine.
We can combine the two constant terms, and , to get . We can also combine the two
radical terms, and , to get . The expression is equal
to .
