Question

Could somebody please help me show my work?
I have the right answer the question, I just need to show how I got that answer..

1. Which values of a and b are a solution to the inequality I 5 - 2a I - B < = 4?

Answer: a = 3, b = -1

Answer 1

for this problem there are an infinite number of solutions
the only thing you can do is check your possible answers

Answer 2

\[|5-2a|-b\leq 4\]
\[|5-2a|\leq 4-b\]
\[b-4\leq 5-2a\leq 4-b\] is a start if you try to solve it using algebra
but you have two unknowns

Answer 3

i am assuming you were given some choices and asked "which ones work" or something like that

Answer 4

yes.

Answer 5

then all you can do is check them
plug in the numbers and see which ones work

Answer 6

I know the answer, I just need to show my work, im bad at showing my work /:
