Question 762518: 10. Point A is the origin. Find the coordinates of the two points that are 5 units distant from A, and have x-coordinates of +3. (Hint: Make a sketch. The two points fall on the line x=5, and therefore have coordinates (5,y) where y is unknown. Use the distance formula, suitably rearranged.)Problems 11 through 13: Find the slope of the line, given points A and B on the line.

Question 765948: I have an absolute value inequality that I have trouble with.

How do I do this with the -2? I have all other problems done, and I know what the answer is (should be true for all numbers, as the left side of the inequality is always negative), but I cannot show it mathematically. Can you please show me how to get the solution?
