Solve the inequality. Graph the solution. –2 ≤ 2x – 4 < 4 My work: -2 ≤ 2x < 8 0 ≤ 2x < 10 0 ≤ x < 5 There is no choice for it? Am I wrong?

OpenStudy (luigi0210):

Why did -2 turn to 0?

OpenStudy (nincompoop):

MAGIC!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't know? I'm so confused.

OpenStudy (luigi0210):

Well.. what's 4-2? That's another way of looking at it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

um –2 ≤ 2x – 4 < 4 0 ≤ 2x – 6 < 4 0 ≤ 2x < -2

OpenStudy (luigi0210):

:/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So am I correct?

OpenStudy (luigi0210):

No >.< But at least you're giving it an attempt

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yep :)

OpenStudy (luigi0210):

Okay, so we will start from the beginning. First of all, add 4 to both sides.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay. :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I see my mistake I started on the right instead of the left. So thanks!

OpenStudy (luigi0210):

Uhm, you sure you're good?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes. Thanks again.

OpenStudy (luigi0210):

Well okay, you're welcome ^_^'
