To solve the absolute value equation \(-3 - |6 - 3x| + 7 = 4\), we first simplify the equation.

Starting from the original equation:
\[
-3 - |6 - 3x| + 7 = 4
\]

We combine the constants \(-3\) and \(7\):
\[
4 - |6 - 3x| = 4
\]

Next, we isolate the absolute value term:
\[
-|6 - 3x| = 0
\]

This implies:
\[
|6 - 3x| = 0
\]

An absolute value is equal to zero when its argument is zero:
\[
6 - 3x = 0
\]

Solving for \(x\):
\[
3x = 6 \implies x = 2
\]

Next, we check if \(x = 2\) is a solution by substituting it back into the original equation:
\[
-3 - |6 - 3(2)| + 7 = 4
\]
Calculating the absolute value:
\[
6 - 6 = 0 \implies |6 - 3 \cdot 2| = 0
\]
Thus, we have:
\[
-3 - 0 + 7 = 4
\]
\[
4 = 4
\]

Since this is true, the solution is confirmed to be correct.

Thus, the solution is:
\[
\boxed{2}
\]

To solve the equation \(-3 - |6 - 3x| + 7 = 4\), we start by simplifying the left-hand side.

1. Combine the constants \(-3\) and \(+7\):
\[
4 - |6 - 3x| = 4
\]

2. Since both sides equal \(4\), we can simplify the equation to:
\[
-|6 - 3x| = 0
\]

3. This implies:
\[
|6 - 3x| = 0
\]

4. The absolute value is zero when its argument is zero, so we set up the equation:
\[
6 - 3x = 0
\]

5. Solving for \(x\):
\[
3x = 6 \implies x = 2
\]

Now, we will check if \(x = 2\) satisfies the original equation:

6. Substitute \(x = 2\) back into the original equation:
\[
-3 - |6 - 3(2)| + 7 = 4
\]
Simplifying inside the absolute value:
\[
6 - 6 = 0 \implies |6 - 6| = 0
\]
Substitute back into the equation:
\[
-3 - 0 + 7 = 4
\]
This simplifies to:
\[
4 = 4
\]

Since this is true, \(x = 2\) is indeed a solution.

Thus, the final answer is:
\[
\boxed{2}
\]

To solve the equation \(5 |9 - 5n| - 7 = 38\), follow these steps:

1. **Isolate the absolute value**:
Add \(7\) to both sides:
\[
5 |9 - 5n| = 45
\]

2. **Divide by \(5\)**:
\[
|9 - 5n| = 9
\]

3. **Set up two cases** for the absolute value:
- Case 1: \(9 - 5n = 9\)
- Case 2: \(9 - 5n = -9\)

4. **Solve Case 1**:
\[
9 - 5n = 9
\]
Subtract \(9\) from both sides:
\[
-5n = 0 \implies n = 0
\]

5. **Solve Case 2**:
\[
9 - 5n = -9
\]
Subtract \(9\) from both sides:
\[
-5n = -18
\]
Divide by \(-5\):
\[
n = \frac{-18}{-5} = \frac{18}{5} = 3.6
\]

6. **Summary of solutions**:
The solutions to the equation are:
\[
n = 0 \quad \text{and} \quad n = 3.6

So, the final answers are:
\[
\boxed{0} \quad \text{and} \quad \boxed{3.6}

It looks like you want to solve the inequality \(5 |9 - 5n| - 7 < 38\). Let's go through the steps to solve this inequality.

### Step 1: Isolate the absolute value

Start by adding \(7\) to both sides of the inequality:
\[
5 |9 - 5n| < 38 + 7
\]
\[
5 |9 - 5n| < 45
\]

Now, divide both sides by \(5\):
\[
|9 - 5n| < 9
\]

### Step 2: Set up the corresponding inequalities

The absolute value inequality \(|A| < B\) translates to:
\[
-B < A < B
\]
In our case:
\[-9 < 9 - 5n < 9\]

### Step 3: Solve the compound inequality

1. **First part**:
\[
-9 < 9 - 5n
\]
Subtract \(9\) from both sides:
\[
-18 < -5n
\]
Divide by \(-5\) (remember to flip the inequality sign):
\[
\frac{18}{5} > n \quad \text{(or)} \quad n < \frac{18}{5}
\]

2. **Second part**:
\[
9 - 5n < 9
\]
Subtract \(9\) from both sides:
\[
-5n < 0
\]
Divide by \(-5\) (again flipping the inequality sign):
\[
n > 0
\]

### Step 4: Combine the results

From the inequalities we have:
\[
0 < n < \frac{18}{5}
\]

### Final Answer

The solution to the inequality \(5 |9 - 5n| - 7 < 38\) is:
\[
\boxed{(0, \frac{18}{5})}
\]

This means \(n\) can take any value between \(0\) and \(3.6\) (not including \(0\) and \(3.6\)).
Answered by GPT-4o mini
Let’s reevaluate the inequality \(5 |9 - 5n| - 7 < 38\).

### Step 1: Isolate the absolute value

Add \(7\) to both sides:
\[
5 |9 - 5n| < 45
\]
Now, divide both sides by \(5\):
\[
|9 - 5n| < 9
\]

### Step 2: Set up the inequality

An absolute value inequality of the form \(|A| < B\) translates to:
\[
-B < A < B
\]
For our case:
\[
-9 < 9 - 5n < 9
\]

### Step 3: Solve the two parts of the compound inequality

#### Part 1:
\[
-9 < 9 - 5n
\]
Subtract \(9\) from both sides:
\[
-18 < -5n
\]
Now, divide by \(-5\) (remember to flip the inequality):
\[
\frac{18}{5} > n \quad \text{(or equivalently)} \quad n < \frac{18}{5}
\]

#### Part 2:
\[
9 - 5n < 9
\]
Subtract \(9\) from both sides:
\[
-5n < 0
\]
Now divide by \(-5\) (again flipping the inequality):
\[
n > 0
\]

### Step 4: Combine the results

So far, we have:
- From Part 1: \(n < \frac{18}{5} \) (or \(n < 3.6\))
- From Part 2: \(n > 0\)

### Final Interval Solution
Combining these inequalities gives us:
\[
0 < n < \frac{18}{5}
\]

So the solution is:
\[
(n \in (0, 3.6))
\]

### Finding the Other Case
We need to take into account the case for the absolute value when it is negative.

### Step 5: Absolute Value Greater Than

In addition to the less than case, we also look at when \( |9 - 5n| \) is greater than \(9\):
\[
|9 - 5n| > 9
\]

This splits into two cases:

1. **Case 1**:
\[
9 - 5n > 9
\]
\(-5n > 0\) thus \(n < 0\) (This will give us negative values)

2. **Case 2**:
\[
9 - 5n < -9
\]
Rearranging gives us:
\[
-5n < -18 \implies n > \frac{18}{5}
\]

### Final Combined Solutions
Combining both parts:

1. From the case \(0 < n < \frac{18}{5}\)
2. From the case \(n < 0\) (which is out of the valid \(n\) range)
3. And \(n > \frac{18}{5}\), which means \(n > 3.6\)

So, the complete solution set is:
- \( (0, \frac{18}{5}) \)
- \( (3.6, \infty) \)

Thus, the complete solution can be represented as:
\[
\boxed{(0, \frac{18}{5}) \cup (\frac{18}{5}, \infty)}
\]

To solve the equation \(4|7 - x| + 1 = -1\), follow these steps:

### Step 1: Isolate the absolute value

First, we can subtract \(1\) from both sides of the equation:
\[
4|7 - x| = -1 - 1
\]
\[
4|7 - x| = -2
\]

### Step 2: Consider the properties of absolute values

Since the absolute value \(|A|\) is always non-negative (i.e., \(|A| \geq 0\) for any \(A\)), the left-hand side, which is \(4|7 - x|\), must also be non-negative. However, we set it equal to \(-2\), which is impossible.

### Conclusion

Since we cannot have \(4|7 - x| = -2\), the equation has **no solutions**.

Thus, the final answer is:
\[
\boxed{\text{no solution}}
\]

To solve the equation \(|12 - 3x| = |9 + 4x|\), we need to break it down into cases based on the definitions of absolute values.

### Two Cases to Consider:

1. \(12 - 3x = 9 + 4x\)
2. \(12 - 3x = -(9 + 4x)\)

### Case 1: \(12 - 3x = 9 + 4x\)

1. Rearranging gives:
\[
12 - 9 = 4x + 3x
\]
\[
3 = 7x
\]
\[
x = \frac{3}{7}
\]

### Case 2: \(12 - 3x = -(9 + 4x)\)

1. Distributing the negative sign gives:
\[
12 - 3x = -9 - 4x
\]

2. Rearranging:
\[
12 + 9 = -4x + 3x
\]
\[
21 = -x
\]
\[
x = -21
\]

### Summary of Solutions

We have two potential solutions from the two cases:
1. \(x = \frac{3}{7}\)
2. \(x = -21\)

### Verify Solutions

**For \(x = \frac{3}{7}\)**:
\[
12 - 3\left(\frac{3}{7}\right) = 12 - \frac{9}{7} = \frac{84}{7} - \frac{9}{7} = \frac{75}{7}
\]
\[
9 + 4\left(\frac{3}{7}\right) = 9 + \frac{12}{7} = \frac{63}{7} + \frac{12}{7} = \frac{75}{7}
\]
Thus, \(|12 - 3x| = |9 + 4x|\) holds true.

**For \(x = -21\)**:
\[
12 - 3(-21) = 12 + 63 = 75
\]
\[
9 + 4(-21) = 9 - 84 = -75
\]
Thus, \(|12 - 3x| = |9 + 4x|\) holds true as well.

### Final Answer
Both solutions are valid:
\[
\boxed{\left\{\frac{3}{7}, -21\right\}}
\]

To create an absolute value equation based on the given table of values, we are looking for a form of the equation \(y = |x + b|\) that matches the values of \(y\) for the corresponding values of \(x\).

Let's start by analyzing the points provided:

- For \(x = -1\), \(y = 2\)
- For \(x = 0\), \(y = 1\)
- For \(x = 1\), \(y = 0\)
- For \(x = 2\), \(y = 1\)
- For \(x = 3\), \(y = 2\)

### Step 1: Find vertex of the absolute value function

From the table, we can see that the absolute value graph has its vertex at \(x = 1\) where \(y = 0\). This means the expression inside the absolute value should be \(x - 1\) (shifting the graph to the right).

### Step 2: Formulate the equation

We can start with:
\[
y = |x - 1|
\]

### Step 3: Adjust for the vertical shift

However, we can see that for \(x = 0\), \(y\) is \(1\), which indicates that we may need to adjust our equation vertically.

To shift down, we can write:
\[
y = |x - 1| + 0
\]

This to start matches the maximum point around \(y = 0\), but we see that the values of \(y\) can also be adjusted, as in fact, the lowest point is exactly at \(y = 0\).

### Final Absolute Value Equation

Thus, the final equation that fits the given points is:
\[
\boxed{y = |x - 1|}
\]

To match your format \(y = |x + b|\), we can rewrite \(x - 1\) as:
\[
y = |x + (-1)| \implies b = -1
\]
Hence:
\[
\boxed{y = |x - 1| \text{ or } y = |x + (-1)|}
\]
This confirms the correct points as per your provided data table.

To solve the absolute value equation \(2|x - 3| - 4 = -4\), start by isolating the absolute value term.

### Step 1: Isolate the absolute value

Add \(4\) to both sides of the equation:
\[
2|x - 3| - 4 + 4 = -4 + 4
\]
\[
2|x - 3| = 0
\]

### Step 2: Divide by \(2\)

Now, divide both sides by \(2\):
\[
|x - 3| = 0
\]

### Step 3: Solve the absolute value equation

The absolute value is equal to \(0\) only when the expression inside is equal to \(0\):
\[
x - 3 = 0
\]

Adding \(3\) to both sides gives:
\[
x = 3
\]

### Conclusion

The solution to the absolute value equation is:
\[
\boxed{x = 3}
\]

To solve the absolute value equation \(7 |2x - 1| + 4 = 3\), we first isolate the absolute value term.

### Step 1: Isolate the absolute value

Subtract \(4\) from both sides:
\[
7 |2x - 1| = 3 - 4
\]
\[
7 |2x - 1| = -1
\]

### Step 2: Analyze the equation

Since the absolute value \(|2x - 1|\) cannot be negative, multiplying it by \(7\) still results in a non-negative number. This means that:
\[
7 |2x - 1| \geq 0
\]

Thus, \(7 |2x - 1| = -1\) has no possible solutions because the left-hand side is always zero or positive, while the right-hand side is negative.

### Conclusion

Therefore, the absolute value equation \(7 |2x - 1| + 4 = 3\) has **0 solutions**.

Thus, the answer is:
\[
\boxed{0}
\]

To solve the absolute value equation \(-|11x - 9| + 9 = 7\), we will follow these steps:

### Step 1: Isolate the absolute value

Subtract \(9\) from both sides:
\[
-|11x - 9| + 9 - 9 = 7 - 9
\]
\[
-|11x - 9| = -2
\]

### Step 2: Multiply by \(-1\)

Multiplying both sides by \(-1\) (which flips the inequality):
\[
|11x - 9| = 2
\]

### Step 3: Set up the cases for the absolute value

The equation \(|11x - 9| = 2\) gives us two cases to consider:

**Case 1:**
\[
11x - 9 = 2
\]

**Case 2:**
\[
11x - 9 = -2
\]

### Step 4: Solve each case

**Solving Case 1:**
\[
11x - 9 = 2
\]
Add \(9\) to both sides:
\[
11x = 11
\]
Divide by \(11\):
\[
x = 1
\]

**Solving Case 2:**
\[
11x - 9 = -2
\]
Add \(9\) to both sides:
\[
11x = 7
\]
Divide by \(11\):
\[
x = \frac{7}{11}
\]

### Step 5: Summary of solutions

We have two solutions:

1. \(x = 1\)
2. \(x = \frac{7}{11}\)

### Final Ordering of Solutions

The lower-valued solution is \(\frac{7}{11}\) and the higher-valued solution is \(1\).

Thus, the answers are:
- Lower-valued solution:
\[
\boxed{\frac{7}{11}}
\]
- Higher-valued solution:

#### Final Answers:
- Lower-valued solution:
\[
\boxed{\frac{7}{11}}
