I think this is your problem.
%28abs%28x%2B2%29%29%2F10%3E=8
abs%28x%2B2%29%3E=80
Absolute value problems are really two problems in one:positive solution and negative solution.
Positive solution:
%28x%2B2%29%3E=80
x%3E=78
Negative solution:
-%28x%2B2%29%3E=80
x%2B2%3C=-80
x%3C=-82
The solution is then all x,
(-infinity,-82]U[78,infinity)
