Answer in fraction form: -17/4 < x < 11/4
Answer in decimal form: -4.25 < x < 2.75
=======================================================
Work Shown:
|4x+3| - 9 < 5
|4x+3| < 5+9 .... adding 9 to both sides
|4x+3| < 14
-14 < 4x+3 < 14 .... see note at the bottom
-14-3 < 4x < 14-3 .... subtracting 3 from all sides
-17 < 4x < 11
-17/4 < x < 11/4 .... divide all sides by 4
-4.25 < x < 2.75
This says that x is between -4.25 and 2.75, but x is not equal to either endpoint.
Note: I used the rule that |x| < k becomes -k < x < k where k is a positive real number.
Answer:
y = 1/3x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope - Intercept Form = y = mx + b
y - intercept = b = 2 (point of intersection of the y-axis)
m = slope
Slope = Change in Y/Change In X
You can see that as the graph goes up by 1, it goes to the right 3, so slope = 1/3
Equation : y = mx + b
Equation : y = 1/3x + 2
-Chetan K
here is a contradiction because in one inequality x can be equal to 15 ; and in the other it cannot
