Answer
Absolute value equations pf the form $|x-a|=b, b \gt 0$ have two solutions because one solution is a positive number while the other is a negative number.
Work Step by Step
Absolute value equations of the form $|x+a| = b, \gt 0$ have two solutions. This is because one solution is a positive number while the other is a negative number.
For example,
The equation $|x|=2$ has two solutions because:
$|2|=2$ and $|-2| = 2$.
