which conjunction or disjunction is equivalent to the given absolute value inequality?
|x + 2| > 16

a. x + 2 > 16 and x + 2 < - 16
b. x + 2 < 16 and x + 2 > - 16

Respuesta :

The correct answer is A.  When dealing with an absolute value inequality, you want to flip the positive to a negative sign, as well as flip the inequality sign.

Answer:

a.

Step-by-step explanation:

|x+2|>16

x+2>16 or x+2<-16

So, tecnically a and b are incorrect, but if you change the "and" to "or" the correct would be a.
