ok lemme ask u a question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What question

pooja195 (pooja195):

We know that absolute values have either a negative or positive value right? So our set up would be this: 1) y+4=1 <---solve for y 2) y+4=-1 <--solve for y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes before anything u need to solve y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

srry my internet crashed

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So 1) -3 and 2) -5 ?

pooja195 (pooja195):

Yes :)

Thank You!!

pooja195 (pooja195):

:)

pooja195 (pooja195):

You forgot the signs

pooja195 (pooja195):

y <−3 and y >−5

hero (hero):

|y+4| <1 is equivalent to -1<y+4<1 The next step is to subtract 4 from each side . You end up with -5<y<-3 as the correct result

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh thank you for helping me!

pooja195 (pooja195):

Both answers mean the same thing.

hero (hero):

But only one of them is written in the proper form.

pooja195 (pooja195):

But they are still the same.
