Write two separate inequalities: 6 ≤ 2 x − 8 and 2 x − 8 < 12 . We solve them independently.
6 ≤ 2 x − 8 and 2x − 8 < 12
O
14 ≤ 2 x 2x < 20
C
7 ≤ x x < 10
Therefore, the solution set is 7 ≤ x < 10 , or in interval notation, [7, 10).
Question2: Score 1.6/8
,Solve the inequality involving absolute value.
|x − 3| + 5 ≥ 12
Enter the exact answer in interval notation.
To enter ∞ , type infinity. To enter ∪ , type U.
