    What is the capital of Egypt? ( Cairo )

    1 Answer

    1. Quizzma Team

      To solve the equation ( 2|4x + 5| = 0 ), we start by isolating the absolute value:

      1. Divide both sides by 2:

      [

      |4x + 5| = 0

      ]

      2. The absolute value is equal to zero only when the expression inside is zero:

      [

      4x + 5 = 0

      ]

      3. Solve for ( x ):

      [

      4x = -5

      ]

      [

      x = -frac{5}{4}

      ]

      Thus, the only solution is ( x = -frac{5}{4} ).

      The correct answer is B: Only ( x = -5/4 ).
