Answer: Choice C (empty set)
The first thing to do is subtract 7 from both sides
|x| + 7 < 4
|x| + 7 - 7 < 4 - 7
|x| < -3
Recall that absolute value represents distance on a number line. Saying |x| is less than -3 means the distance is smaller than -3, which is impossible. Anything smaller than -3 is also negative. Distance can never be negative.
That leads us to the empty set as the solution. There are no values we can plug into any of the inequalities above, to have them lead to true statements.
Writing the special symbol is one way to represent the empty set. Another way is to write curly braces only with nothing inside them like so: { }, so its a set with nothing inside it more or less.

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Using mental math to find the slope of the line:</u>
If you think about the formula, then you set up the points in your head, you will notice that the first point is on top of the second point. And that way makes it easy to simplify. All you would need to do is subtract down in your head: For example:
(0, 0)
(4, 8)
As you can see, the first point is on top of the other, and that way you can just subtract from bottom to top. If you do it that way, it is set up (Remember, you would do this all in your head)
