Given that x < 5, rewrite 5x - |x - 5| without using absolute value signs.
Absolute values can be written two ways.
They are shown here.
1. 5x-(x-5)
or
2. 5x - -1(x-5)
This translates to:
1. 4x+5
2. 6x-5
where x<5.
Sorry about that, I just noticed that I am wrong, as x-5 must be negative.
It's 4x+5
