Answer: C. (-3, 9)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2|x-3|=12

Divide both sides by 2

2|x-3|/2=12/2

|x-3|=6

Take of absolute value sign (REMEMBER need to take into consideration of two conditions)

x-3=±6

1)x-3=6

     x=9

2)x-3=-6

      x=-3

**NOTE**: need to check each solution whether or not they are suitable

Hope this helps!! :)
