Step 1
We need to solve the absolute value inequality.
|2x+4|>6
Step 2
Firstly we discuss the rules of absolute value inequalities.
Here the steps :
Step 1: Isolate the absolute value on left hand side.
Step 2: Remove the absolute value sign.
Step 3: For greater than sign:
Quantity inside the absolute value < - (Number on other side)
OR
Quantity inside the absolute value > (Number on other side)
Step 3
|2x+4|>6
2x+4<6
2x<64
2x<10
x<5
Or
2x+4>6
2x>64
2x>2
x>1
Step 4
So, final answer is:
x<5
Or
x>1
