For
|a|<b
assume
-b<a<b
so
add 5 to both side
|-2-8x|<66
assume
-66<-2-8x<66
add 2 to both sides
-64<-8x<68
divide everyboy by -8, don't forget to flip sign
8>x>-8.5
-8.5<x<8
the solution is all numbers between -8.5 and 8, not including -8.5 and 8
in interval notation: (-8.5,8)
or
S={x|-8.5<x<8}
Answer: 3
3,000,000,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Billions have 9 zeros
2xy + 5x -12y -30
x(2y + 5) - 6( 2y + 5)
(2y+5) (x-6)
