Solve for w. −3∣w∣≤−9Write a compound inequality like 1 < x < 3 or like x < 1 or x > 3. Use integers, proper, or improper fractions in simplest form.______
Q. Solve for w. −3∣w∣≤−9Write a compound inequality like 1<x<3 or like x<1 or x>3. Use integers, proper, or improper fractions in simplest form.______
Divide and Solve: We have the inequality: −3∣w∣≤−9First, we divide both sides by −3 to solve for ∣w∣. Remember that dividing by a negative number reverses the inequality sign.−3∣w∣/−3≥−9/−3∣w∣≥3
Interpret Absolute Value Inequality: Now we interpret the absolute value inequality ∣w∣≥3. This means that w is either greater than or equal to 3 or less than or equal to−3. So we can write two inequalities: w≥3 or w≤−3
Write Compound Inequality: We can now write the compound inequality that represents the solution to the original inequality.The compound inequality is:w≤−3 or w≥3
