Question

Solve: 2|x 7|−4 ≥ 0 express the answer in set-builder notation.

Answer 1

The correct answer for the given inequality is  {x | x ≤ -9 or x ≥ -5}.

What is inequality?

Inequality is a statement shows greater the, greater then equal to, less then,less then equal to between two algebraic expressions.

To solve an absolute inequality, first step is to isolate absolute value expression.

Hence remove -4 from the left side. So, add 4 to each sides of the inequality.

2|x + 7|−4 ≥ 0

2|x + 7|−4 +4≥ 0 +4

2|x + 7| ≥ 4 Combine the like terms.

Divide each sides by 2.

$\dfrac{2|x + 7| }{2} \geq \dfrac{4}{2}$

|x + 7| ≥2

Next step is to remove the absolute value sign. So,

x + 7≥2 and x+7≤-2.

x≥2-7 and x≤-2-7

x≥-5 and x≤-9

So, the correct choice is  {x | x ≤ -9 or x ≥ -5}.
