Create an or
compound inequality because the absolute value is greater than or equal to the given value.
w<- 15 or w>9
We are asked to find the solution set for all possible values of w in the given inequality.
|2w+6|>24
To do this, we will create a compound inequality by removing the absolute value. In this case, since 2w+6 can be written as 2w-(-6), the solution set contains the numbers that make the distance between 2w and - 6 greater than 24 in the positive direction or in the negative direction.
This inequality tells us that all values greater than 9 will satisfy the inequality.
This inequality tells us that all values less than - 15 will satisfy the inequality.
The solution to this type of compound inequality is the combination of the solution sets. First Solution Set:& w>9 Second Solution Set:& w<- 15 Combined Solution Set:& w<- 15 or w>9
