Q. Solve for tt.\newline4t4|4t| \geq 4 \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. Divide by 44: We are given the inequality 4t4|4t| \geq 4 and we need to solve for tt. First, we divide both sides of the inequality by 44 to isolate the absolute value of tt. 4t4|4t| \geq 4 4t/44/4|4t|/4 \geq 4/4 t1|t| \geq 1
  2. Consider Two Cases: Now we have t1|t| \geq 1. The absolute value inequality t1|t| \geq 1 means that tt is at a distance of at least 11 from 00 on the number line.\newlineThis gives us two cases to consider:\newline11. t1t \geq 1 (when tt is positive or zero)\newline22. t1t \leq -1 (when tt is negative)
  3. Write Compound Inequality: We can now write the compound inequality that represents the solution to the original inequality 4t4|4t| \geq 4. The compound inequality is t1t \geq 1 or t1t \leq -1.
