Answer Posted / hrishabh baghrecha

Q: |-5-x| + |2-x|+|6-x|+10-x|
A:
firstly considering A.|2-x|+|6-x|+|10-x|, 6 is avg. of 2 & 10. So choosing x=6 will give min. value for these.
And then considering B.|-5-x|, This will be 5+x.
Finally putting the value of x in A&B and then adding it will give 19.
