[y+4]<1
If |x|<1, then we are looking for all the numbers that have a distance of less than 1 from 0. Those are the numbers between -1 and 1. All of these numbers that are in that set from -1 to 1 is a solution to |x|<1. You would say -1<x<1. So if we have |f(x)|<1=> -1<f(x)<1 Solve for x. If we had |x|>1, then we say we want all the numbers outside the interval from -1 to 1 because these numbers all have distances greater than 1 from 0. So you would say x>1 or x<-1 Of if you had |f(x)|>1=> f(x)>1 or f(x)<-1 Now watch out for when you have |f(x)|< negative. This won't happen |f(x)| will be positive or zero output. You will not have negative output. There would be no solution to |f(x)|<negative If we had |f(x)|>negative, well the solution would be all x where f is defined because |f| would be positive or zero which is always to the right of the negatives.
so out of these options the answer would be -5<y<-3 correct answer -3<y<5 -4<y<1 -<y<4
yep that is right.
thanks
