Question

Solve as an Equality. |x-3| ≥ 3

Answer 1

x + 3 ≥ 3

Answer 2

I think :P

Answer 3

@blazereh thats right so far now solve that :)

Answer 4

@BlueNikeZ7 Lets not use that language

Answer 5

Can you explain why |x-3| is = x + 3? I remember learning this, but I'm just mathed out :)

Answer 6

Ok so its asking you for the absolute value right?
the absolute value of -3 is just 3

Answer 7

\[|x-3| ≥ 3\]
Absolute value of -3 is just 3 and absolute value of postitive X is just X
\[x+3 ≥ 3 \]
now subtract 3 from both sides

Answer 8

\(|x-3| ≥ 3\) doesn't imply \(x+3 ≥ 3 \)

Answer 9

See: if it does, then we would have \(x\ge0\), right?

Hmmm... Let \(x = 4\); we have \(|4-3|\ge3~~\Rightarrow~~|1|\ge3~~\Rightarrow~~1\ge3\)

Is it true that \(1\ge3\)? @pooja195
