What do your absolute value signs look like?

What does it mean when we say you have to clean up the problem?
A variaty of answers can apply (you will receive points if your group says something that makes sense)
3x - 2= 25
x= 9
|−7|
7
| 8b -10 |= 58
b= 68/8 & b= -6
Distance can never be...
Negative
What do these signs indicate: < >
Less than, greater than, need to use open circle when graphing
4x + 2= 2x + 12
x=5
2|-8-3|
22
5 | 2 + v | +9 = 14
v=−1 and v=−3
If the distance is negative... then your answer is...
No Solution
What do these signs indicate: ≤ ≥
Less than or equal to, greater than or equal to, need to use closed circle when graphing
-3 (2h - 4) = 20 - 4h
h=-4
| x+3 |/6=-12
No Solution
|x-8| > 15
n > 23 and n < -7
How many cases are there when solving absolute value problems?
2
What is the difference between closed circle and open circle?
2x - (2 - 3x)= 12x +40
x=-6
-2x+7>-11 - Do not forget to graph
x<9
|8+b|+10 ≤ 12
b ≥ -10 and b ≤ -6
What do you do with the second case?
flip the sign and change the symbol
Can you distribute for the following equation:
2|-9+6m|+1= 57
No (explain/ review as a group)
22(x+3) + 9 - 5 = 32
x=4
20+x ≥ 4(−5+2x) - Do not forget to graph
x= -40
7|x+10|+10 < 80
x<0 and x>-20
