Special solutions

objective: Solve absolute value equations and identify extraneous solutions

recall

when variables "cancel out" during the solving process, the equation has a special solution.

a true statement: A false statement:

Infinitely many solutions

no solution

zoom poll

|4x-8| = -8

a. infinitely many solutions b. no solution c. at least one solution

zoom poll

|4x-8|-10 = -8

a. infinitely many solutions b. no solution c. at least one solution

extraneous solution

an extraneous solution is solution that seems to be correct, until checking it in the original equation...then you find that it doesn't work!

|2x+12|=4x

zoom poll

which of these equations has no solution?

a. |x|-4=3 b. |x|+5=3 c. |x+5|=4

Remember to do your CFU question in edio!
