:how many solutions does the following equation have? |3x + 12| = 18 select one: a. no solution b. one solution c. two solutions d. infinitely many solutions ( my guess is two solutions)

There are two solutions for the equation.

This is how you solve the absolute-value equation. If there is an equation of
| 3x + 12 | = 18
3x + 12 will have 2 solution, first is negative 18 and second is positive 18.

Work on it:
First solution
3x + 12 = -18
3x = -18 - 12
3x = -30
x = -10

Second solution
3x + 12 = 18
3x = 18 - 12
3x = 6
x = 2

The solution are x = -10 or x = 2. There are 2 solutions

Okay so it will be 1123
