Solve for x |x|+6=3

$| x | + 6 = 3$

Step 1

Move all terms not containing $| x |$ to the right side of the equation.

Subtract $6$ from both sides of the equation.

$| x | = 3 - 6$

Subtract $6$ from $3$ .

$| x | = - 3$

Step 2

There is no value of $x$ that makes the equation be true since an absolute value can never be negative.

No solution
