Q. Solve for tt.\newlinet<8-|t| < -8\newlineWrite a compound inequality like 1<x<31 < x < 3 or like x<1x < 1 or x>3x > 3. Use integers, proper fractions, or improper fractions in simplest form.\newline______
  1. Isolate absolute value: We are given the inequality t<8-|t| < -8. To solve for tt, we first need to isolate the absolute value expression on one side of the inequality. Since the absolute value is being multiplied by 1-1, we can divide both sides of the inequality by 1-1 to get t>8|t| > 8. Remember that when we divide or multiply both sides of an inequality by a negative number, we must reverse the direction of the inequality.\newlineCalculation: t<8t>8-|t| < -8 \rightarrow |t| > 8 (after dividing by 1-1 and reversing the inequality)
  2. Interpret absolute value: Now that we have t>8|t| > 8, we can interpret this as tt being greater than 88 or less than 8-8. This is because the absolute value of tt is greater than 88, which means tt is more than 88 units away from 00 on the number line, in either direction.\newlineCompound inequality: t>8t > 8 or tt00
