Question

Solve and graph the absolute value inequality: |2x + 1| ≤ 5.

number line with closed dots on -3 and 2 with shading going in the opposite directions.

number line with closed dots on -3 and 2 with shading in between.

number line with open dots on -3 and 2 with shading in between.

number line with closed dots on -2 and 2 with shading in between.

Answer 1

Well its ≤ so its a closed dot so we scratch out C

Answer 2

Well that helps a bit

Answer 3

First the x is not negative so it will still go the same way. So its pointing left, so it didnt change so we can scratch A

and when you subtract 5-1=4
and 4 divided by 2=2
and its still going to the left and 5+1=6 6 and 6 divided by 2=3 and going to left so it isnt opposite so it would be B in my opinion

Answer 4

2x + 1 <= 5
2x <= 4
x <= 2

also

2x + 1 >= -5
2x > -6
x >= -3

Answer 5

B is correct
