We have that
<span> |x+6| >= 5
step 1
resolve for (x+6)>=5------> x>=5-6-------> x>= -1
the solution is the interval </span>(-1, ∞)
<span>
step 2
resolve for -(x+6) >=5------> -x-6 >=5----> -x >= 5+6---> -x>=11----> x<=-11
</span>the solution is the interval (-∞, -11)
<span>
using a graph tool
see the attached figure
the solution is the interval (-</span>
∞, -11) ∩ (-1, ∞)
You can take out your calculator type in 5656 x 12323 and say does 69698888 look like 7373 Bonita. pull yourself together Bonita.
12tttttttttttttttttttttttt
Are a and b two points on a line
If they are you can use the distance formula
<span>Shaded region is when x is negative</span>
