Full solution

Q. Solve for nn.\newlinen+1=4|n| + 1 = 4\newlineWrite your answers as integers or as proper or improper fractions in simplest form.\newlinen=n = _____ or n=n = _____
  1. Isolate absolute value: Subtract 11 from both sides of the equation to isolate the absolute value.\newlinen+11=41|n| + 1 - 1 = 4 - 1\newlinen=3|n| = 3
  2. Consider absolute value definition: Consider the definition of absolute value. If n=3|n| = 3, then nn can be either 33 or 3-3.\newlinen=3n = 3 or n=3n = -3
