Answer:
1. x=4 or x=10
2. x=-10 or x=10
No equivalent
Step-by-step explanation:
1. |x-3|=7 and x-3=7
Absoulte rules.
x-3=-7 and x-3=7
Add 3 both sides.
x-3+3=-7+3
Simplify.
-7+3=-4
x=-4
x-3=7
Add by 3 both sides.
x-3+3=7+3=10
x=10
X=-4, and X=10 is the correct answer.

2. |x|-3=7
Add by 3 both sides.
|x|-3+3=7+3
Simplify.
7+3=10
X=10
X=-10 and X=10 is the correct answer.
