PLEASE HELP!!! Solve |2x – 9| + 4 < 7. You must show all work. Use >= and <= to represent the inequalities. Use complete sentences to describe the graph in words.

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

|2x-9|+4<7 subtract 4 from both sides |2x-9|<3 now |a|<b implies -b<a<b so you have -3<2x-9<3 add 9 to all terms 6<2x<12 divide by 2 on all terms 3<x<4

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

sorry fixed typo

OpenStudy (anonymous):

THANKS BRO!! LIFE SAVER.

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

should be 3<x<6...sorry its late

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah after lookin through it understood it thanks again bro!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait can you explain the second part of the question?

OpenStudy (zzr0ck3r):

It will be the area bounded by the graph of y= |2x-9| and y=3
