Solve for w.∣w∣+7>17Write a compound inequality like 1<x<3 or like x<1 or x>3. Use integers, proper fractions, or improper fractions in simplest form.______
Q. Solve for w.∣w∣+7>17Write a compound inequality like 1<x<3 or like x<1 or x>3. Use integers, proper fractions, or improper fractions in simplest form.______
Isolate absolute value: We have the inequality: ∣w∣+7>17First, we isolate ∣w∣ by subtracting 7 from both sides of the inequality.∣w∣+7−7>17−7∣w∣>10
Interpret absolute value: Now we interpret the absolute value inequality ∣w∣>10. This means that w is either greater than 10 or less than −10. So we can write two separate inequalities: w>10 or w<−10
Final compound inequality: We now have the compound inequality that represents the solution to the original problem:w>10 or w<−10This is the final answer in the form of a compound inequality.
