| 7k-7 | -2 < 6 this is your exercise ?

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

like a first step add to both sides 2 and will get |7k-7| < 8 yes ?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

`my answer: (-15/7,1/7)` @rock_mit182 you mixed up the signs somehow

OpenStudy (rock_mit182):

yeah, my mystake was add -7 on both sides instead of adding 7 on both sides

OpenStudy (rock_mit182):

anyway thanks to all of you!

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):

for example you need to know that |x| = x for x >=0 and -x for x < 0

OpenStudy (rock_mit182):
