Basic Math Examples
3+|c-1|=33+|c−1|=3
Step 1
Step 1.1
Subtract 33 from both sides of the equation.
|c-1|=3-3|c−1|=3−3
Step 1.2
Subtract 33 from 33.
|c-1|=0|c−1|=0
|c-1|=0|c−1|=0
Step 2
Remove the absolute value term. This creates a ±± on the right side of the equation because |x|=±x|x|=±x.
c-1=±0c−1=±0
Step 3
Plus or minus 00 is 00.
c-1=0c−1=0
Step 4
Add 11 to both sides of the equation.
c=1c=1
Step 5
Remove the absolute value term. This creates a ±± on the right side of the equation because |x|=±x|x|=±x.
c-1=±0c−1=±0
Step 6
Plus or minus 00 is 00.
c-1=0c−1=0
Step 7
Add 11 to both sides of the equation.
c=1c=1
