(1) |6 - 3x| = x - 2

(2) |5x + 3| = 2x + 9


Hi Bunuel, cann't it be solved by the following approach?

Statement 1:
6-3x=x-2
X=2
Again,
-(6-3x)=x-2
ie -6+3x=x-2
X= 2

Similar solution from in both scenario. Hence sufficient.

Statement 2:

Similar process and we will get x= 12/7 and 2. Two different solutions. hence Insufficient.

Ans: A
