|v + 8| − 5 = 2 

• x = -1 and x = -15
• x = -1 and x = -5
• x = -15 and x = 15
• No Solution

Evaluate each expression.
| x + 9 | = -5

• x = -14
• x = -4
• x = -14 and x = -4
• No Solution

∣ 2x + 9 ∣ = 15

• x = 3 
  x = -3
• x = 3
  x = -6
• x = 3
  x = -12
• x = 6
  x = -12

Solve for r.
−2|−2r − 4| = -12

• x = 5
  x = 1
• x = -5
  x = -1
• x = -5
  x = 1
• No Solution

Solve for x.
2|x + 1| - 5 = 5

• x = 4
  x = 6
• x = -4
  x = 6
• x = -6
  x = 4
• no solution
