Start with the given inequality


Break up the absolute value (remember, if you have , then or )

or Break up the absolute value inequality using the given rule




Now lets focus on the first inequality


Start with the given inequality


Add 3 to both sides


Combine like terms on the right side


Divide both sides by 4 to isolate x



Reduce


Now lets focus on the second inequality


Start with the given inequality


Add 3 to both sides


Combine like terms on the right side


Divide both sides by 4 to isolate x



Divide

Answer:

So our answer is

or


which looks like this in interval notation





if you wanted to graph the solution set on a number line, you would get

means that or , so:


Solve:


OR

Solve: (remember to reverse the sense of the inequality when multiplying both sides by a number less than zero) →

Therefore any number that is either less than or greater than is in the solution set of . In set builder notation:

{All x | x is real and (x < ½ or x > 2)}
