Question

What two inequalities would you use to solve the absolute value inequality |4x + 3| > 2?

A.
4x + 3 > -2, 4x + 3 < 2
B.
4x + 3 < -2, 4x + 3 > 2
C.
4x + 3 > 2, 4x – 3 < -2
D.
4x + 3 > 2, 4x + 3 > -2

Answer 1

Sorry I made a mistake. Let me correct it.

Answer 2

All right, there are two possibilities. The first, 4x + 3 is a positive number; the second, 4x+3 is a negative number, Thus the first inequality is
4x+3>2;
the second is
4x+3<-2.

So the answer is B.
