Question

help me with these 2 questions

Answer 1

what we want to do is get the absolute value sign and everything in it on one side and everything else on the other side.

2 + | t + 6 | < 12 --- subtract 2 from both sides
| t + 6 | < 12 - 2
| t + 6 | < 10

now we make 2 equations out of this...
t + 6 < 10 and -(t + 6) < 10

can you solve these 2 equations for t now ?

Answer 2

@texaschic101 I cant seem to get it. is it A???

Answer 3

t + 6 < 10
t < 10 - 6
t < 4

-(t + 6) < 10
-t - 6 < 10
-t < 10 + 6
-t < 16.....multiply both sides by -1 to make t positive...but remember that when multiplying/dividing by a neg, it changes the inequality sign
t > -16

so we have : t < 4 and t > -16 or -16 < t < 4
no..its C

Answer 4

ok help me with one more?
