Solving an Absolute Value Equation Using Two Cases

The video tutorial explains how to solve equations involving absolute values. It begins by isolating the absolute value symbol and then creating two cases: one where the quantity inside is positive and another where it is negative. The tutorial demonstrates solving these equations and verifying the solutions to ensure they are correct.
