Explanation for Question 16 From the Math (No Calc) Section on the 2017 April Sat
Question 16 says the value of one solution to the equation above is 2 one. What is the value of the other solution? 3 Since this is an absolute value equation. 4 And when you plug in one, five minus one is equal to four, 5 we know that the other solution occurs when five minus X is equal to 6 negative four. So I'm going to set that equation up and sell for X. 7 So I'm going to add X to both sides to get five equals X 8 minus four, and then add four to both sides to get X 9 is equal to nine, which is the final answer to this question.
