Question
Solve the equation
x=233
Alternative Form
x≈0.130435
Evaluate
∣x−3∣=2x×11
Multiply the terms
∣x−3∣=22x
Rewrite the expression
∣x−3∣−22x=0
Separate the equation into 2 possible cases
x−3−22x=0,x−3≥0−(x−3)−22x=0,x−3<0
Solve the equation

Collect like terms by calculating the sum or difference of their coefficients
(1−22)x
Subtract the numbers
−21x
−21x−3=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
−21x=0+3
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−21x=3
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
21x=−3
Divide both sides
2121x=21−3
