Solve for v.\lvert v \rvert - 7 > -2Write a compound inequality like 1 < x < 3 or like x < 1 or x > 3. Use integers, proper fractions, or improper fractions in simplest form.
Q. Solve for v.∣v∣−7>−2Write a compound inequality like 1<x<3 or like x<1 or x>3. Use integers, proper fractions, or improper fractions in simplest form.
Isolate absolute value: We have the inequality:|v| - 7 > -2First, we isolate the absolute value term by adding 7 to both sides of the inequality.|v| - 7 + 7 > -2 + 7|v| > 5
Interpret absolute value: Now we interpret the absolute value inequality.The inequality |v| > 5 means that v is more than 5 units away from 0 on the number line. This leads to two separate inequalities:v > 5 or v < -5
Write compound inequality: We can now write the compound inequality that represents the solution to the original inequality.The compound inequality is:v > 5 or v < -5
