PLEASE HELP |y + 4| < 1 (1 point)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

will give prize

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hello?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

From this info, we know that y + 4 < 1 and y + 4 > -1. Let's start with the first inequality y + 4 < 1 We must start this problem by subtracting 4 from both sides of the equation, y + 4 - 4 < 1 - 4 y < 1 - 4 Can you tell me what is 1 - 4?

SUCK A CALK "honey"

Squo-o

OpenStudy (squirrels):

sorry wrong website

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1 - 4 = -3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Random, anyways. That is correct, so one of yor answers is y < -3 Now on to the second inequality y + 4 > -1 To solve this, subtract 4 on both sides of the equation y + 4 - 4 > -1 - 4 y > -1 - 4 So what is -1 - 4?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-1 - 4 = -5?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Correct, so y > -5 and y < -3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Are your answers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oops T_T.. It didn't send my reply, but did you get it

OpenStudy (perl):

the equation | y + 4 | < 1 is equivalent to -1 < y + 4 < 1 solve for y

OpenStudy (perl):

in general the equation | x | < k , where k > 0 is equivalent to -k < x < k
