Which of these expressions resolves to a finite set of solutions for x? a.)|2 + x| = 7 b.)2 < x < 7 c.)|2 + x| > 7

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you aren't even trying now

OpenStudy (anonymous):

remember that X can be a decimal. could be 1 or 1.1 or 1.11 or 1.111 1.1111 etc

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you let me know if ianswered the other questions correct . . .

OpenStudy (anonymous):

evaluate each one separately, first look at a is there an infinite number of solutions that would add to equal seven in this case

OpenStudy (anonymous):

uhmm no !

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks for expLaininq it much better kristobalpaton ! : )

OpenStudy (anonymous):

think of what was stated by hedlesschkn include decimals for x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im tryinq to but im a litto confused : /

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but yes that was correct that statement about decimals is concerning the other two solutions

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you try to tell me why it wouldn't be b or c?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

with b you could of use any number between 2 and 7 which including decimals is infinite 2.1, 2.11,2.1111

OpenStudy (anonymous):

with c any number greater than five would be able to fit in place of x
