Answer:

x = -6          or   x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

|3x-4(x+1)|=2

Simplify inside the absolute value by distributing

|3x-4x-4|=2

Combine like terms

|-x-4|=2

Now separate into two equations, one positive and one negative

-x-4 = 2   or -x-4 = -2

Add 4 to each side

-x-4+4 = 2+4     or -x-4 = -2+4

-x = 6                  or -x =2

Multiply by -1

x = -6          or   x = -2
