Answer:

You could just replace all the given possible values of k in the inequality and see which ones are solutions, but let's solve this in a more interesting way:

First, remember how the absolute value works:

IxI = x if x ≥ 0

IxI = -x if x ≤ 0

Then if we have something like:

IxI < B

We can rewrite this as

-B < x < B

Now let's answer the question, here we have the inequality:

I-k -2I < 18

Then we can rewrite this as:

-18 < (-k - 2) < 18

Now let's isolate k:

first, we can add 2 in the 3 parts of the inequality:

-18 + 2 < -k - 2 + 2 < 18 + 2

-16 < -k < 20

Now we can multiply all sides by -1, remember that this also changes the direction of the signs, then:

-1*-16 > -1*-k > -1*20

16 > k > -20

Then k can be any value between these two limits.

So the correct options (from the given ones) are:

k = -16

k = -8

k = 0

Explain how the steps of the distributive property can be used to solve the equation 3(x + 4) =36 ?
Oksanka [162]

Step-by-step explanation:

First, apply the distributive property to the left side of the equation. Multiply each of the two numbers inside the parentheses by 12 and then combine those products. Next, solve as you would solve any two-step equation. To isolate \begin{align*}12x\end{align*} on the left side of the equation, add 24 from both sides.
