Create and solve a one-variable linear equation from a short context.

Solve an absolute-value equation as distance from a target

Problem

A measured length is exactly \(0.4~\text{centimeters}\) from a target of \(10~\text{centimeters}\). Let \(x\) represent the measured length in centimeters. Use an absolute-value equation to determine all possible values of \(x\).
