solve for \(x\).

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

\(\large \color{black}{\begin{align} \sqrt{x^2}<x+1\hspace{.33em}\\~\\ \end{align}}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Need help @mathmath333 ^.^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If you think im new and dont know much about OS this is my alt account .-. my original is @just_one_last_goodbye

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Let's take a look... ^_^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but @mathmath333 I'm being monitored by mods and cant give a direct answer so please stay I need your participation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

First we need to find the "real region" of the problem

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\sqrt{x ^{2}}\] is real to what?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@mathmath333 u there?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what have you got math?

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

i have got \(x>-1/2\) and \(x>0\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It is real to \[(x ^{2}) \ge 0\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@mathmath333 thats the answer x > -1/2 is the solution

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x>-1/2 covers x>0 also, so answer is x>-1/2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[[Solution: x > -\frac{ 1 }{ 2 }\] \[[Decimal: x > -0.5]\] \[[Interval Notation: (-\frac{ 1 }{ 2 }, \infty) ]\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh hey @wio huge fan of your extension that you made for OS ^.^ im currently using all of them

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

but the common region between \(x>0.5\) and \(x>0\) so why not \(x>0\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x>-0.5 not x>0.5

OpenStudy (mathmath333):

yea i mean \(x>-0.5\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You can split it up: \[ x\lt x+1 \\ -x\lt x+1 \]The first equation will be true for all real \(x\), and so only the second equation matters. That equation leads to: \[ 0\lt 2x+1 \implies -\frac 12 \lt x \]
