OpenStudy (welshfella):

the vertical lines around the 2x - 4 mean the ABSOLUTE value of 2x - 4 and is always positive 2x - 4 itself may be positive or negative

OpenStudy (heyitslizzy13):

okay

OpenStudy (heyitslizzy13):

so I solved for both 2x-4 and 2x+4 and got x<= 5/2 and x<= 3/2

OpenStudy (welshfella):

so we can write 2 equations 2x - 4 <= 1 and 2x - 4 >= -1

OpenStudy (welshfella):

solving these 2 equations will give you the limits of the intervals

OpenStudy (welshfella):

can you solve these/

OpenStudy (heyitslizzy13):

so 5/2 and 3/2

OpenStudy (heyitslizzy13):

?
