help plz

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sure what'sup?

OpenStudy (atlchic):

\[3\le2g+7, 2g+7\le15\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok well start by subtracting seven from each side so you get \[-4\le2gle8\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

*sorry \[-4 \le 2g \le 8\]

OpenStudy (atlchic):

can u use the equation editor plz

OpenStudy (atlchic):

where did u get 8 from

OpenStudy (atlchic):

nvm

OpenStudy (anonymous):

15-7

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok and then you divide everything by two. because 2 is positive you don't change the direction of any of the inequality sings, so you get \[-2 \le g \le\ 4\]

OpenStudy (atlchic):

next

OpenStudy (atlchic):

\[\14| - \2z|=16\]solve,

OpenStudy (anonymous):

alright are these absolute value signs or what? idk what the red is XD

OpenStudy (atlchic):

absolutev value

OpenStudy (anonymous):

alright well the absolute value of 14 is 14 so we can write this as \[14-\left| 2z \right|=16\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then we subtract 14 from both sides and get \[-\left| 2z \right| = 2\]

OpenStudy (atlchic):

the answer is 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

divide both side by -1 so you get \[\left| 2z \right| = -2\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

actually there is no answer - nto as the question was written

OpenStudy (atlchic):

y-9(absolute value)<19, solve

OpenStudy (anonymous):

absolute value has to be positive, right? but up there we have something that says that an absolute value is negative. this can never happen, therefore the answer does not exist

OpenStudy (anonymous):

alrighty

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well the absolute value of 9 is 9 so our equation is y-9<19

OpenStudy (atlchic):

k go faster plz

OpenStudy (anonymous):

from here we add 9 to both sides and get y<28

OpenStudy (atlchic):

thts it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yup

OpenStudy (anonymous):

( thanks cerezas for helping me )

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah well... :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry, it's bothering me a bit, guess it shows

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

don't worry about it :)
