Question

|5y-2| > -8

Answer 1

| x |>a gives x <-a,x >a
\[\left| 5y-2 \right|>-8 \]
5y-2<-(-8)
5y<8+2
5y<10
y<2
And 5y-2>-8
5y>-6
y>-6/5

Answer 2

now, what would it be if the question was like that on both sides? |3a+4| = |4a-8|. would you remove the brackets and what ever answer I get use (+, -) ??
