What would a number line look like with |5t+7|+8=17
I got not clue how to graph a number line for this. I KNOW i had a previous topic of the same stuff. But there was a lot of confusion for me and i wanted to clear this up. Please only reply if you can help.

so it'll be a dot over -16/5 and a dot over 2/5, since those are the only two values that satisfy the equation

|5t+7|+8=17 -8 -8
|5t+7|=9 from here it can be either 5t +7=9 5t=2 t=2/5 or 5t+7=-9 t=-16/5
it would just be those two points, unless you're doing an inequality
