Question

What are the solution intervals for |2x + 7| - 3 > 2?


A. x < 6 and x > -1
B. x > -6 and x < 1
C. x < -6 or x > -1
D. x > 6 or x < -1

Answer 1

I was thinking D

Answer 2

Add 3 to both sides of the given inequality and then break the inequality into two parts without the absolute bar as shown below:
If |A| > B it implies A > B or A < -B

Solve for x in each case: A > B OR A < -B

Answer 3

So does that mean it is C
