41. |3x+6|-8=-2

3x+6-8=-2 so 3x-2=-2

x=0- one solution

and -4, (B)

I'll start off with 44.

a=4, b=3, c=5, d=-6

Plugging them in, we have:

(4*5-3(-6))+(4(-6)+3*5)i

So, simplifying, we get $$38-9i$$

41. First add 8 to both sides, to get,  |3x+6|=6

Then, we have, |f(x)|=a - f(x)=-a or f(x)=a

So, 3x+6=-6 or 3x+6=6

3x+6=-6: x=-4

3x+6=6: x=0

So, x=-4, or x=0

Number 41.

Same thing as we did in 41.

Add 2 to both sides, to get, $$|2x+1|\geq7$$

|f(x)| greater than or equal to a, f(x) less than or equal to a, or f(x) greater than or equal to a

$$2x+1\leq-7: x\leq-4$$

$$2x+1\geq7: x\geq3$$

Combine the ranges, to get $$x\leq-4$$ or $$x\geq3$$
