\

The equation is \"\".

\

Write two cases:

\

Case-1: \"\"

\

\"\"

\

Case-2: \"\"

\

\"\"\"\"

\

Solve the equation for Case-1.

\

\"\"

\

Apply addition property of equality: Add 36 to each side.

\

\"\"

\

\"\"            (Apply Additive inverse property: \"\")

\

 \"\"                 (Apply Additive identity property: \"\")

\

\"\"                          (Add: \"\")\"\"

\

Apply division property of equality: Divide each side by 2.

\

\"\"

\

\"\"                          (Cancel common terms)

\

\"\"                             (Divide: \"\")\"\"

\

Check:

\

To check the solution, substitute \"\" in original equation.

\

\"\"

\

\"\"                (Multiply:\"\")

\

\"\"                        (Subtract: \"\")

\

\"\"                           (The absolute value of 14 is 14)

\

Compare the values the equation is true. \"\" is a solution.
