Multiple choice question!

Which values satisfy the inequality? |z| ≤ 5

Choose all answers that are correct.

A.
z = –6

B.
z = –5

C.
z = –1

D.
z = 8

Answer 1

z is an absolute value, so no matter what value you put in for z, it will be positive.
So B & C would both work. Do you understand why?

Answer 2

Thank you! I have no idea why though .-.

Answer 3

okay so you understand that the lines that z is in is an absolute value. So no matter what number you put into those line, negative or positive, it will always come out positive. (unless you have a negative sign outside of the lines).

Answer 4

put -6 in for z. it will come out as 6. Is 6 less than or equal to 5?

Answer 5

Ohhhh! I understand >,< Thank you! <3

Answer 6

no problem. Glad to help.
