|4x+4| = 3
|x+1| = 3/4
x+1 = ± 3/4
x = -1 ± 3/4
x = -7/4 or -1/4
So, -1/4 is correct, as seen by using it:
|4(-1/4)+4| = |-1+4| = |3| = 3
you can verify -7/4 for yourself.
|x+1| = 3/4
x+1 = ± 3/4
x = -1 ± 3/4
x = -7/4 or -1/4
So, -1/4 is correct, as seen by using it:
|4(-1/4)+4| = |-1+4| = |3| = 3
you can verify -7/4 for yourself.
