Solve the equation | 4 x − 1 | = 13 where x 1 ≤ x 2

I do not see any x1 nor a x2 in the problem statement. Did you mean to write 1 ≤ x ≤ 2

What do those vertical lines mean?

What number or numbers, if any would you put between the vertical lines to make this equation valid: | | = 13?

What ever your answer(s) for the above is/are, set 4x-1 equal to the number(s)
