Please help!!!! Which graph represents the solutions to the inequality |4x - 8| > 8
@amistre64 @thomaster @undeadknight26 @ParthKohli @SolomonZelman @ganeshie8 @Hero @Luigi0210 @Loser66 @triciaal
the one that cuts |4x-8| off at y=8
those are the answer choices
@amistre64 I don't understand
oh, well it looks like you narrowed it down some, can you tell me why you want to pick B?
well its not going to be a closed circle right because its greater than and not greater than or equal to
good, what else do we know .... that will help us out? we know that 0<8 so try to solve 4x-8 = 0 to see what NOT to include
x=2?
yes x=2 makes it 0, so we do NOT want the section that has 2 in it .... B fits the bill perfectly.
o thank you so much
well, there is no color legend, im assuming blue are solutions, and yellow are not?
otherwise its hard to tell if we pick A or B .... depends on what color defines the solution area.
yes the blue are the solutions
yay!! lol
first let 4x -8 = 0 x=2 when x = 0 y = -8 but use the absolute value = 8 draw the line using points (08) and (2,0) shade the section to the right ask for greater than 0
sorry i had 4x -8 >0 it shoud be>8 to give the point (4,0) won't change the answer still B
thank you could you help me with another
post
that's the same one
no its a different one
now it is 2x -4 <=14
yes
use the same process 2x - 4 + 4 = 14 + 4 x = 9 boundary
when x = -9 y = 22
ok
C include the points shaded circle when x = -5 solution -5 to x = 9 include
ok thank you
wait so which one would it be
sorry B reason correct
so very sorry i am getting confused when we have absolute we are taking the positive value
last one was easy i drew the graph and then read the numbers
o ok thank you so much
let me do the graph to confirm give me a few minutes
-5 to 9 included
already showed when x = -9 value =22 so not included limit is -5
