Q. Solve for dd.\newline7=d+27 = |d| + 2\newlineWrite your answers as integers or as proper or improper fractions in simplest form.\newlined=d = _____ or d=d = _____
  1. Isolate absolute value: Subtract 22 from both sides of the equation to isolate the absolute value on one side.\newline72=d+227 - 2 = |d| + 2 - 2\newline5=d5 = |d|
  2. Determine values of dd: Determine the values of dd that satisfy the equation d=5|d| = 5.\newlineIf d=5|d| = 5, then dd can be either 55 or 5-5 because the absolute value of both 55 and 5-5 is 55.\newlinedd00 or dd11
