What is the extraneous solution of the given absolute value equation?
-2|-2x-4|=-12

9514 1404 393

  is no extraneous solution

Step-by-step explanation:

An absolute value equation typically does not have extraneous solutions. The solutions to this one are ...

  x ∈ {-5, 1}

__

Unless there is some domain restriction, this equation has no extraneous solutions.

_____

For -2x-4 < 0

  -2(2x +4) = -12

  x +2 = 3

  x = 1 . . . . . . -2(1)-4 = -6 < 0. Not an extraneous solution

__

For -2x-4 > 0

  -2(-2x -4) = -12

  4x +8 = -12

  4x = -20

  x = -5 . . . . . . -2(-5) -4 = 6 > 0. Not an extraneous solution

8

step-by-step explanation:

just put √(2) * √(32) into a calculator. that will make the answer be 8.
