{-6, 12}
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming that you meant (1/3), then you have:
(1/3) |3x - 9| - 5 = 4
First, let's combine the - 5 and the + 4:
(1/3) |3x - 9| = 9
Next, multipy both sides by 3 to eliminate the fraction 1/3:
|3x - 9| = 27
This absolute value equation has two separate parts:
3x - 9 = 27, and
- (3x - 9) = 27.
In the first case, we have x - 3 = 9, or x = 12.
In the second case, we have - 3x + 9 = 27, or - 3x = 18, or x = - 6.
The solution set is {-6, 12}.
