|-2x + 9| > 9

sqrt((9 - 2x)^2) > 9

0 < x < 9
x is in (0, 9)

What is the number line graph of |6-(2x-3)|>9
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


The given inequality

    |6 - (2x-3)| > 9


is the same as

    |-2x + 9| > 9


and is equivalent to

    |x - 4.5| > 4.5.


It describes the points x on number line that are remoted MORE THAN 4.5 units from the point 4.5.


The solution set (these points) are  

    x < 0  or  x > 9,               ANSWER


or, in the interval notation, the solution set is the union  

    (-oo,0) U (9,oo).               ANSWER

Solved.
