Solve the inequalities. show your work as it is done in the examples. (hint: one answer will be "no solution" and one answer will be "all real numbers".

3. |x| < 8

7. 5 > |x - 1|

9. |4x + 5| + 2 > 10

10. |2x + 3| + 6 > 0

b.

step-by-step explanation:

1. when "a" is a root of a polynomial, (x -a) is a factor of it. for the three roots given, the factors of the desired polynomial are (x +2)(x -1/2)(x -3).

in order to make the leading coefficient be negative, we need to multiply this product by a negative number. any negative number will do, but we choose a small (magnitude) value that will eliminate the fraction: -2.

then

f(x) = -2(x +2)(x -1/2)(x -3) = -(x +2)(2x -1)(x -3)

= -(2x² +3x -2)(x -3)

= -(2x³ -3x² -11x +6)

f(x) = -2x³ +3x² +11x -6

2. a graph created by the desmos on-line graphing calculator is shown, and the zeros are highlighted.

3. as indicated in part 1, the multiplier of this equation can be anything and the zeros will remain the same. you want a negative leading coefficient, so the "anything" is restricted to any of the infinite number of numbers that will make that be the case.

option b  

step-by-step explanation:

we know that

the distance from point n to lm in the figure is equal to the distance of the perpendicular line to lm that passes through the point n

so

the distance is equal to the segment no

> given problem

therefore

the distance from point n to lm is equal to
