___________________________
(i) |x+2|-3 = 5- |x+2|
|x+2| + |x+2| = 5 + 3
2|x+2| = 8
|x+2| = 4
x+2 = ±4
x = -2±4
x = -2+4 OR -2-4
x = 2, -6 ← ANSWER
(ii) l2y+3l /2 -3 = 8
l2y+3l /2 = 11
l2y+3l = 22
2y+3 = ±22
2y = -3±22
y = (-3±22)/2
y = (-3+22)/2 OR (-3-22)/2
y = 19/2, -25/2 ← ANSWER
(iii) ly+2l/l3l = 1 ← note that l3l = 3
ly+2l/3 = 1
ly+2l = 3
y+2 = ±3
y = -2±3
y = -2+3 OR -2-3
y = 1, -5 ← ANSWER
