Question

What are the integer values of x if
|x| is less than or equal to 4?

Answer 1

|a| <= b
gives
a<=b or a>= -b

so what will |x| <=4 give you ?

Answer 2

@hartn Does that mean to find the integers less than 4?

Answer 3

@hartnn

Answer 4

infact integers less than 4 and greater than -4!!

Answer 5

|x| <=4
x<=4 or x>=-4

Answer 6

@hartnn What are the integer values of n satisfying the inequality |n|> 5?

Answer 7

same process
|a|>b gives a>b or a<-b

so, |n|>5 gives ?

Answer 8

@hartnn Are the numbers -5,-4,-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3,4,4?

Answer 9

*5

Answer 10

no, they are actually |n| <= 5

Answer 11

|a|>b gives a>b or a<-b

so, |n|>5 gives n>5 or n<-5


so, from -infinity to ....-7,-6,6,7,....infinity

Answer 12

What do you mean by "so, from -infinity to ....-7,-6,6,7,....infinity"

Answer 13

-6,-7,-8,-9 ,...and so on...
6,7,8,9,...and so on

Answer 14

Where do I stop then?

Answer 15

you never stop actually....because whatever higher value you take, it will be greater than 5..

Answer 16

Thabk u very much
