Answer: a=4 or a= −3, so you can use anyone of the answers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve Absolute Value.

|2a−1|=7

We know either 2a−1= 7or 2a−1 = −7

2a−1=7(Possibility 1)

2a−1+1=7+1(Add 1 to both sides)

2a=8

[tex]\frac{2a}{2} = \frac{8}{2}[/tex] (Divide both sides by 2)

a=4

OR,

2a−1=−7 (Possibility 2)

2a−1+1= −7+1 (Add 1 to both sides)

2a= −6

[tex]\frac{2a}{2} =\frac{-6}{2}[/tex] (Divide both sides by 2)

a= −3

Therefor the answers are a=4 or a= −3

* Hopefully this helps:) Mark me the brainliest:)!!
