-8≤8-x≤8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

subtract 8 straight across as a start

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Then you will have to multiply -1 straight across afterwards in order to get rid of the negative sign that remains next to the x. @satellite73 Do the signs change?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes otherwise the answer would not make sense

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont understand

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[-8\leq 8-x\leq 8\] subtract 8 from ever term \[-16\leq-x\leq0\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the change every sign and the sense of the inequality to get \[16\geq x\geq 0\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

which you can rewrite if you like as \[0\leq x\leq 16\] to put the smaller number on the left, but it says the same thing

OpenStudy (anonymous):
