Question

What is the value of  x in vertical line 4 X plus 7 vertical line less than 43

hintHint:

|x| is known as the absolute value of x. It is the non-negative value of x irrespective of its sign. The value of absolute value of x is given by
vertical line x vertical line equals open curly brackets table attributes columnalign right left right left right left right left right left right left columnspacing 0em 2em 0em 2em 0em 2em 0em 2em 0em 2em 0em end attributes row cell negative x comma x less than 0 end cell row cell x comma x greater or equal than 0 end cell end table close
First, we simplify the inequality and then solve it by considering the two cases.

The correct answer is: Combining the above two solutions, we get -50/4<x<9


    Step by step solution:
    The given inequality is

     vertical line 4 x plus 7 vertical line less than 43
    We use the definition of  vertical line x vertical line, which is

    vertical line x vertical line equals open curly brackets table attributes columnalign right left right left right left right left right left right left columnspacing 0em 2em 0em 2em 0em 2em 0em 2em 0em 2em 0em end attributes row cell negative x comma x less than 0 end cell row cell x comma x greater or equal than 0 end cell end table close

    For, 4 x plus 7 less than 0 ,
    We have

    vertical line 4 x plus 7 vertical line equals negative left parenthesis 4 x plus 7 right parenthesis less than 43
    Simplifying, we get

     negative 4 x minus 7 less than 43
    Adding 7 on both sides, we get

     negative 4 x less than 43 plus 7 equals 50
    Dividing by -4 on both sides, we have

    x greater than negative 50 over 4

    Or

    negative 50 over 4 less than x

    For, 4 x plus 7 greater or equal than 0 ,
    We have

    vertical line 4 x plus 7 vertical line equals 4 x plus 7 less than 43
    Subtracting 7 from both sides, we get

     4 x less than 43 minus 7 equals 36
    Dividing by 4 throughout,

     x less than 9
    Combining the above two solutions, we get

    negative 50 over 4 less than x less than 9

    The given inequality contains only one variable. So, the graph is plotted on one dimension, which is the real line. Geometrically, the absolute value of a number may be considered as its distance from zero regardless of its direction. The symbol |.| is pronounced as ‘modulus’. We read |x| as ‘modulus of x’ or ‘mod x’.

    A road sign shows a Vehicle's speed as the vehicle passes.

    a. The sign blinks for vehicles travelling within 5 mi divided by straight h of the speed limit. Write and solve an absolute value inequality to find the minimum and maximum speeds of an oncoming vehicle that will cause the sign to blink.
    b. Another sign blinks when it detects a vehicle travelling within 2 mi divided by straight h of a 35 mi divided by straight h  speed limit. Write and solve an absolute value inequality to represent the speeds of the vehicles that cause the sign to blink.

    |x|, which is pronounced "Mod x" or "Modulus of x," stands in for the absolute value of the variable x. The measure is the meaning of the Latin term "modulus." Common names for absolute value include numerical value and magnitude. The absolute value does not include the sign of the numeric value; it solely represents the numeric value. Any vector quantity's modulus is its absolute value and is always assumed to be positive.
    Furthermore, absolute values express all quantities, including time, price, volume, and distance. Take the absolute value as an example: |+5| = |-5| = 5. The absolute value has no assigned sign. The formula to calculate a number's absolute value is |x| = x if it is greater than zero, |x| = -x if it is less than zero, and |x| = 0 if it is equal to zero.
