Answer:

Morgan divided 2 throughout the original equation, giving her |x-3.5|=2.5.

x = 6 and x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

|2x-7|=5 -- divide by 2

|x-3.5|=2.5 and |x-3.5|=-2.5 -- since this is an absolute value equation, we have to consider both positive and negative

x-3.5 = 2.5

x = 6

x-3.5 = -2.5

x = 1
