5. Solve |2x - 41 <10​

Sagot :

Answer:

{x | -6 < x < 7}

Step-by-step explanation:

|2x - 4| <10

if (2x - 4) is positive:

2x - 4 < 10

2x < 10 + 4

2x < 14

Divide both sides by 2

x < 7

if (2x - 4) is negative:

-1(2x-4) < 10

-2x + 4 < 10

-2x < 10 - 4

-2x < 6

Divide both sides by 2, and we'll have

-x < 6

Interchange the positions of - x and 6 so that the expression - x will be positive:

- 6 < x

Final answer:

-6 < x < 7
