It could be 20 times or 25 times
Hello Caitlin,
|2x + 16| > 24
We want to solve the absolute value
2x + 16 > 24 or 2x + 26 < -24
So we gonna each of them
2x + 16 > 24
2x > 24 - 16
2x > 8
x > 8/2
x > 4
Now let's solve the second possibility
2x + 26 < -24
2x < -24 - 26
2x < -40
x < -40/2
x < -20
Thus,
The answer is: x > 4 or x < -20
If you have additional question about the answer, please feel free to let me know.
Have a great weekend!

Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:
If we plug in any negative number as x, the result will always be greater than 4, which rules out answers A and B
lets try plugging in 4 as x to test answer C:
2(8-4)
2(4)= 8
8 is greater than 4, therefore C is wrong.
Lets try 10 as X (answer D):
2(8-10)
2(-2)
-4
We know that -4 is less than 4, therefore it makes the inequality true! :)
