solve absolute value equations

The video tutorial covers solving absolute value equations through various examples, starting with basic cases and progressing to more complex scenarios involving operations outside the absolute value and variables on both sides. It emphasizes the importance of checking for extraneous solutions and provides step-by-step guidance on isolating the absolute value and solving the resulting equations.

How do you handle multiple operations outside of the absolute value?

Why is it important to check for extraneous solutions in equations with variables on both sides?

What are the implications of having an absolute value equal to a negative number in an equation?

What is the difference between negating and making a number negative in equations?
