lol another county heard from

anonymous · Answer

hello?

anonymous · Answer

take the square root of both sides

anonymous · Answer

x<6

anonymous · Answer

This means x is less than 6

anonymous · Answer

which of the choices is less than 6?

solomonzelman · Answer

you are not exactly correct, 1011.

solomonzelman · Answer

When you take the square root of both sides that gives you that |x|<6
And this means -6<x<6

solomonzelman · Answer

well, for this scenario it suffices, but in general, I am letting you know that it is not the approach.

anonymous · Answer

in this case it works though, I thought it would just be easier for Dawnel to see it written as x<6

solomonzelman · Answer

(but he might repeat that on a similar problem and get it wrong though)

anonymous · Answer

I'm thinking about A is the answer

solomonzelman · Answer

Yes, A is one of the answers. There are more.

anonymous · Answer

$$-1,000,000<6$$

solomonzelman · Answer

Sate, x^2

anonymous · Answer

my point exactly

solomonzelman · Answer

is there an imaginary in the choices?

anonymous · Answer

in this case it works though, I thought it would just be easier for Dawnel to see it written as x<6

anonymous · Answer

just pointing out that that is not even close

solomonzelman · Answer

but (-7)^2<6
so if -7 was an option.....

solomonzelman · Answer

I see it is easier, but I why do something incorrectly, if it can be done correctly.

solomonzelman · Answer

anyway....
