PLEASE HELP ME SOLVE THIS INEQUALITY 8 |x + 3/4| < 2
\[\left| x+a \right|<b,-b<x+a<b\]
Uh...I think use the distribution property first... 8x+6<2?
8x=-4 Now divide 8 on both sides. x=?
x would equal -.5 if that's the case, right?
\[\left| x+\frac{ 3 }{ 4 } \right|<\frac{ 2 }{ 8 }\]
\[\left| x+\frac{ 3 }{ 4 } \right|<\frac{ 1 }{ 4 }\] ?
im so lost tbh. i dont even know how to do this
\[-\frac{ 1 }{ 4 }<x+\frac{ 3 }{ 4 }<\frac{ 1 }{ 4 }\] \[-\frac{ 1 }{ 4 } -\frac{ 3 }{ 4 }<x<\frac{ 1 }{ 4 }-\frac{ 3 }{ 4 }\] ?
umm...\[\frac{ -2 }{ 3 }\]
:D this is fun
\[\frac{ -1-3 }{ 4 }<x<\frac{ 1-3 }{ 4 }\] \[\frac{ -4 }{ 4 }<x<\frac{ -2 }{ 4 }\] \[-1<x<\frac{ -1 }{ 2}\]
or if there is positive constant ,then you can distribute \[\left| 8x+6 \right|<2\] -2<8x+6<2 -2-6<8x<2-6 -8<8x<-4 divide each inequality by 8 ?
