Answer:
-8 < x< 3
Step-by-step explanation:
|2x+5| <11
there are two solutions, one positive and one negative ( remember to flip the inequality for the negative)
2x+5 <11 and 2x+5 > -11
Subtract 5 from each side
2x+5-5 < 11-5 and 2x+5-5 > -11-5
2x< 6 and 2x>-16
Divide by 2
2x/2 <6/2 and 2x/2 >-16/2
x <3 and x>-8
-8 < x< 3
x is less than 3 and x is greater than -8
open circles and -8 and 3 and a line between
