|a|<1 implies that -1<a<1

cinder elbow
#

ok so

#

is it correct that i develop the first one i think that's the word for it

#

because what i do is

#

caso 1 or case 1

#

i make it so i solve that one

#

-3x < 2x+3-2 then
-3x-2x< 1 no?

#

and then -5x < 1

#

is that it?

#

at least for case 1

#

WAIT im doing it another way aren't i

#

sorry

#

is that better or easier than what i was trying-

#

wait uhmmm

#

ok

#

let me try what you said

hushed heart
#

You can't cross product because you don't know the sign of the expression that you're multiplying by

cinder elbow
#

what is cross product

hushed heart
#

You multiplied by 2x+3 right?

cinder elbow
#

yeah yeah

#

that?

#

i can't do that

#

?

hushed heart
#

Yes

#

You don't know its sign

cinder elbow
#

but if they're absolute value it would it not be the same?

#

wait ok

#

sign, right

#

this this, how do i try this

hushed heart
#

Do you know the sign table btw

cinder elbow
#

ok so im thinking

#

it's likeeee

#

uh in this case

#

i don't think i know

#

but i know what IT is

hushed heart
#

So basically
2x-3 equals 0 if x=3/2 right?

cinder elbow
#

right

#

OH

#

so the bottom one

#

?

#

denominator

hushed heart
#

You take a number before 3/2 for example 1 plug in 1 in 2x-3
We get -1 therefore every number before 3/2 makes our expression negative right?

cinder elbow
#

ok yeah i know how that works

#

but

#

then

#

just 2x-3?

#

wait

#

both of them?

#

2x+3 and 2-3x?

#

a lil confusing but

#

like numerator and denominator?

#

cuz it would be -3/2 instead

#

so then if i take 1 it would be positive if it's 2x+3

#

but like what equations am i inputing in for the table

hushed heart
#

Forget this thing we can do something easier

cinder elbow
#

alr sorry

hushed heart
#

so you have abs of quotient you can split the absoulute value

cinder elbow
#

okayyy

hushed heart
cinder elbow
#

i can just do that?

#

okayy

hushed heart
#

Yes

#

Now it is easy

#

Just square both sites and some simple algebra you will get a simple inequality

cinder elbow
#

oh oh and it wouldn't flip anything since it's

#

always positive right?

#

let me try that

hushed heart
#

Absolutely

cinder elbow
#

WHAT this brought me to the answer i already had

#

but hey i have a new way of doing it

#

it left me to

-1/5 < x < 5

#

so, yeah

#

that

#

ill look into trying the sign table cuz that also seems faster

hushed heart
#

That's what i got too

cinder elbow
#

YAY

#

THANK YOU

#

is that a bad emote

#

for a happy

#

Okay yeah that's all

hushed heart
#

If somehow you found a mistake just pardon me because it's 3am

cinder elbow
#

OH THAT'S OKAY
