|3 - (x-1) | > _ 8 solve inequality

x≥12, x≤-4

Step-by-step explanation:

since there's an absolute value in this inequality, we have to solve it in two ways. 1. 3-(x-1) is greater than or equal to zero, 2. 3-(x-1) is smaller than zero

3-(x-1) is greater than or equal to 0

3-(x-1)≥8

3-x+1≥8

-x+4≥8

-x≥4

x≤-4

3-(x-1) is smaller than 0

-(3-(x-1))≥8

-(3-x+1)≥8

-3+x-1≥8

x≥12

i think there was a typo. you wrote pat brings 3 quarts of ice-cream to the party. each serving of ice-cream is 1 6 quart. how many total servings of ice-cream does pat bring to the party? i think the bold is supposed to be 1/6. so 1 quart of ice cream = 6 servings. 6 * 3 = 18.
