Question

John’s father is the head manager of a company that produces a best selling product. During the most recent computer upgrade, a new production inequality, |-2x - 4| < 12, was added to speed up production. The variable x in the inequality represents the amount of raw material (in kilograms) to make the product.

-If x represents positive amounts in kilograms, what is the solution set?
-According to John’s father, only positive integer solutions to the equation can be used and accepted.

How does this change the answer to question number 2? Explain.
