Q. Solve for zz.\newline2z18|-2z| \leq 18\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. Given Inequality: We are given the inequality:\newline2z18|-2z| \leq 18\newlineFirst, we need to solve for 2z|2z|. \newline2z18|-2z| \leq 18 \newlineThis means that the absolute value of 2z-2z is less than or equal to 1818.
  2. Split Absolute Value: The absolute value inequality 2z18|-2z| \leq 18 can be split into two separate inequalities because the absolute value of a number is the distance from zero, and it can be either positive or negative. Therefore, we have:\newline2z18-2z \leq 18 and 2z18-2z \geq -18
  3. Solve First Inequality: Now we solve each inequality for zz. Starting with the first inequality:\newline2z18-2z \leq 18\newlineDivide both sides by 2-2 to isolate zz. Remember that dividing by a negative number reverses the inequality sign.\newlinez9z \geq -9
  4. Solve Second Inequality: Now we solve the second inequality:\newline2z18-2z \geq -18\newlineDivide both sides by 2-2, again remembering to reverse the inequality sign.\newlinez9z \leq 9
  5. Combine Inequalities: Combining both inequalities, we get the compound inequality:\newline9z9-9 \leq z \leq 9\newlineThis is the solution to the original problem.
