Solving an Absolute Value Equation with Two Solutions

The video tutorial explains how to solve absolute value equations by setting up two cases: one where the absolute value is positive and another where it is negative. The instructor demonstrates solving these cases using inverse operations and multiplication to eliminate fractions. The solutions are verified by substituting them back into the original equation to ensure correctness.
