Part 1: Show the work to solve |3x – 2| < 7 Part 2: Describe the graph of the solution in words.

OpenStudy (lilg132):

3x - 2 < 7 3x < 7 + 2 3x < 9 x < 3

OpenStudy (mertsj):

that means that 3x-2 is less than seven units from 0. Therefore 3x-2 < 7 or 3x-2 > -7 Solve both parts.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-7<(3x-2)<7 Now try by yourself

OpenStudy (mertsj):

3x-2<7 or x <3 3x-2>-7 or x > -5/3

OpenStudy (lilg132):

3x - 2 > -7 3x > -7 + 2 3x > -5 x > -1.666666666666667

OpenStudy (lilg132):

dont forget to click good answer

OpenStudy (mertsj):

The graph would be a line between 3 and -5/3 with open dots on 3 and -5/3 because they are not included in the solution.

Wait.... I'm sorry can someone explain this the process of getting the answer a little more in depth? @Mertsj @lilg132 @roshan2004

is x > - 1.666666666 the answer?
