Answer:

  • |x - 13| = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

When you have the solutions to absolute value equation which are a and b, the equation will look like this:

  • |x - (midpoint of a and b)| = 1/2(range of a and b)

If we apply this provided a = 8, b = 18 we get:

  • Midpoint of 8 and 18 = 13
  • Range of 8 and 18 = 10

The the equation is:

  • |x - 13| = 10/2

or

  • |x - 13| = 5

average of 18 and 8

  • 18+8/2
  • 26/2
  • 13/2

The function is

  • |x-5|=13

As

13-5=8

13+5=18
