Micky is trying to solve the following problem but, he missed the lesson. in complete sentences, describe how you woukd solve the following problem. 6|2x-14|=42

We must solve for x.  Let's simplify this equation by dividing both sides by 6:

|2x-14|=7, which is the same as 2|x-7|=7.

First, assume that x-7 is already positive, so that we don't need the absolute value operator.  Then x-7=7/2.  Adding 7 to both sides results in x = 21/2.

Next, find the other solution:

Assume that x-7 is negative.  Then |x-7|=-(x-7).  Then -(x-7) = 7,

and -x + 7 = 7.  Thus, x = 0.

The solution set is {0, 21/2}.
