Item 4 solve the equation by graphing. ∣x+1∣=∣−x−9∣

The solution is (-5,4).

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equation, |x+1|=|-x-9|

Now, |x+1| =

Also, |-x-9| =

So, equating these two functions gives the value of x = -5. After substituting this value in any of the function term say y = x+1, we get y = 4.

Moreover, from the graph below we see that, after equating these functions, the solution is given by the points at which they intersect.

Hence, the solution is (x,y) = (-5,4).
