    | 5x - 6 | = - 41 ... no solution because an absolute value cannot be negative

    |7x + 13 | = 27

    7x + 13 = 27 - (7x + 13) = 27

    7x = 27 - 13 - 7x - 13 = 27

    7x = 14 - 7x = 27 + 13

    x = 14/7 - 7x = 40

    x = 2 x = - 40/7

    so basically, equation 1 has no solution and equation 2 has 2 solutions
