1 answer

x = –2 or x = 2

To graph these solutions, plot a filled circle at -2 and 2 on the number line. Then draw a horizontal line connecting the two points.

To check the solutions:
For x = -2, |x| + 6 = |-2| + 6 = 2 + 6 = 8
For x = 2, |x| + 6 = |2| + 6 = 2 + 6 = 8

Since both solutions satisfy the original equation, x = -2 and x = 2 are the correct solutions. Therefore, the answer is Choice D.
