In golf, the average score a good player should be able to achieve is called "par." Par for a whole course is calculated by adding up the par scores for each hole. Scores in golf are often expressed at some number either greater than or less than par. Ms. Smith is having a pretty good day at the Megalopolis City Golf Club. Her score so far after 15 holes is -3. If par for 15 holes is 63, what is her score?

Carl recently invested $3000 in the stock market. On the first day he lost $1500 and on the second day he gained $493. What is the new value of his stock portfolio?

Leona was in a golf tournament last week. All of her four rounds of gold were within 2 strokes of par. If par was 72, what are the maximum and minimum scores that Leona could have made in the golf tournament?

Maria went golfing last Tuesday. On the first 9 holes she scored -3 under par. On the last 9 holes she scored +2 over par. For all 18 holes was Maria over or under par?

Nothing. The answer is "No Solution."

Distribute the 4 into the absolute value.

Distribute the -1 into the absolute value.

Subtract 4 from both sides.

$\left|x\right|=54$

$-2\left|x-8\right|=-4$

$3\left|4x-7\right|-8=22$

$\left|\frac{4x-5}{12}\right|-5=-4$
