Which of the following is(are) the solution(s) to | x-1|-8? A. X= 7.-9
B. X = 9
C. X = -79
D. X = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

|x-1|=8

if (x-1) >= 0 meaning x >= 1

then |x-1| = x-1

and then the solution of the equation is

x-1=8

<=> x = 9

if (x-1) <= 0 meaning x <= 1

then |x-1| = -(x-1) = -x+1

so the solution of the equation is

-x+1=8

<=> -x = 7

<=> x = -7

so the solutions are -7 and 9
