Answer 6

you cant type the question in and we can see if its doable

Answer 7

John’s father is the head manager of a company that produces a best selling product. During the most recent computer upgrade, a new production inequality, |-2x - 4| < 12, was added to speed up production. The variable x in the inequality represents the amount of raw material (in kilograms) to make the product.

1. solve inequaltiy
2.If x represents positive amounts in kilograms, what is the solution set?
3.
According to John’s father, only positive integer solutions to the equation can be used and accepted.
How does this change the answer to question number 2? Explain.

Answer 8

we have to set up an absolute value problem two ways; one to get a negative value, and the other to get a positive value.

Answer 9

-2x-4 < 12 -(-2x-4) < 12

-2x < 16 -2x-4 > -12

x > -8 -2x > -8

x < 4


these give us a range of values for x that are between -8 and 4

right?

Answer 10

right

Answer 11

since x is retricted in the problem to positive values; we exclude anything less than 0 as being absurd in real applications

Answer 12

ok how would that look though/

Answer 13

x = [0,4) will be the results we want

Answer 14

ok

Answer 15

0 <= x < 4 is another way to write it out

Answer 16

the question that keeps on giving.

Answer 17

the answer to the question doesnt change any that I can determine.

Answer 18

so you dont know it?

Answer 19

How does this change the answer to question number 2? The answer doesnt change; it retains the same values only that they are restriced to real-world applications

Answer 20

if anything I think the answers would be:

1. x > -8; x< 4

2. -8 < x < 4

3. 0 <= x < 4

Answer 21

ok
