Help please (this has been driving me crazy)
\[\left| x \right|>\left| x^2-4 \right|\] I got the values needed for the answer but all the inequality signs are wrong. I can't seem to see the problem witih my answer either
square both sides and then solve
and also \[x+\left| x+5 \right| +\left| x+3 \right|=\frac{ \left| 6x-6 \right| }{ \left| 1-x \right| }\]
but that will leave me with a degree of 4 which is hard to solve
i tried putting it like -x<x^2-4<x but I'm not sure if its right
@phi (much love)
i think you have put intermidiate of your answer.
i mean solution
please consider the subsequent drawing: |dw:1457273985589:dw| here we have to subdivide the real line i these subsequent sets: \(x<-2\) \(-2<x<0\) \(0<x<2\) \(x>0\)
|dw:1457274132078:dw|
for example, if \(x<-2\), then we can rewrite the inequality, as below: \(-x>x^2-4\) so, please solve
if \(x=-2\), then the inequality reads: \(2>0\) which is true, so \(x=-2\) belongs to the set of solutions
for the first one you could square both sides to get an equation in x^4 which is not too difficult to solve x^2 = x^4 - 8x^2 + 16 x^4 - 9 x^2 + 16 = 0 the inequality will be x^4 - 9x^2 + 16 < 0 let x^2 = Y and solve for Y using the quadratic formula there will be 4 zeroes Drawing the graph using software (like Desmos) will show you what the inequalities are.
or you can use a graphical calculator. the graph looks somethin like this |dw:1457356795411:dw|
