\

The equation is $\"\"$

\

Write two cases:

\

Case-1: The expression inside the absolute value symbols is positive ( $\"\"$ ).

\

$\"\"$

\

Case-2: The expression inside the absolute value symbols is negative ( $\"\"$ ).

\

$\"\"$

\

$\"\"$ (Divide each side by neative 1 and reverse the symbol) $\"\"$

\

Solve the equation for Case-1.

\

$\"\"$

\

Apply addition proparty: $\"\"$

\

$\"\"$ (Subtract 1 from each side)

\

$\"\"$ (Apply Additive inverse proparty: $\"\"$ )

\

$\"\"$ (Subtract: $\"\"$ )

\

The solution set is $\"\"$ $\"\"$
