Solve 4=|x+x*00000232*492

$$4 = | x + x \cdot 00000232 \cdot 492$$

Solve for x

$$x=-\frac{4}{114145}\approx -0.000035043$$

$$x=\frac{4}{114145}\approx 0.000035043$$

Steps Using Definition of Absolute Value

Multiply 232 and 492 to get 114144.

$$4=|x+x\times 114144|$$

Combine x and x\times 114144 to get 114145x.

$$4=|114145x|$$

Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.

$$|114145x|=4$$

Use the definition of absolute value.

$$114145x=4 114145x=-4$$

Divide both sides by 114145.

$$x=\frac{4}{114145} x=-\frac{4}{114145}$$
