7-4|x+7|>-5 is this (negativeinfinity, infinity)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[-4|x+7|>-12\] is a start

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i did that so far

OpenStudy (anonymous):

divide by \(-4\) and change the sense of the inequality to get \[|x+7|<3\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that means \[-3<x+7<3\] and solve for \(x\) by subtracting 7 on all parts

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-10,-4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so my teacher was wrong, he told me it was negative infinity, and positive infinity

OpenStudy (anonymous):

either you copied the problem wrong, or your teacher is wrong it is \(-10<x<-4\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

same as satellite 73
