Question

Which statements verify that the solution set to |x + 3| < 5 is –8 < x < 2? Check all that apply. Substituting a value into the inequality from the solution set, such as –2, will create a true statement. Substituting a value into the inequality from the solution set, such as 1, will create a false statement. Substituting a value into the inequality not from the solution set, such as 4, will create a true statement. Substituting a value into the inequality not from the solution set, such as 6, will create a false statement. Substituting any value into the inequality will create a true statement.

Answer 1

Answer:

1.) Substituting a value into the inequality from the solution set, such as –2, will create a true statement.

4.) Substituting a value into the inequality not from the solution set, such as 6, will create a false statement.

Answer 2

Answer:

First and fourth statements are correct

Step-by-step explanation:

The function is $|x+3|$ where the domain is $-8$

$|-2+3|=1$

The first statement is correct.

$|1+3|=4$

Substituting a value into the inequality from the solution set, such as 1, will create a false statement. This is wrong as it creates a true statement.

$|4+3|=7\nless 5$

Substituting a value into the inequality not from the solution set, such as 4, will create a true statement. This is wrong as a value which is not from the solution set will create a false statement.

$|6+3|=9\nless 5$

Substituting a value into the inequality not from the solution set, such as 6, will create a false statement. This is correct.

$|10+3|=13\nless 5$

Substituting any value into the inequality will create a true statement. This is wrong as the value of x must be in the solution set.
