So wait on his was this the answer just so you can help me understand this? -9<x + 5 < 9 -9-5 < x+5-x < 9-5 -14<x<4

OpenStudy (callisto):

I made a typing mistake there It should be ... -9<x + 5 < 9 -9-5 < x+5-5 < 9-5 -14<x<4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok thank you very much.

OpenStudy (callisto):

It's like the first one, but just do it at the same time. Fast but it might be easier to make mistakes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Alright.

OpenStudy (callisto):

Well. I don't mean to let you copy the answer. You need to understand it instead of moving everything to the paper

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I know i am reading it now hold on.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|x + 5| < 9 -9 < x + 5 < 9 -9 -5 < x < 9 -5 -14 < x < 4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hey, exactly how Callisto solved! I should have copied down, so I don't have to type myself :P

OpenStudy (callisto):

Hmm.. not exactly the same though

OpenStudy (anonymous):
