How do you get rid of an absolute value inequality?

If the number on the other side of the inequality sign is positive, proceed to step 3. Remove the absolute value bars by setting up a compound inequality....

Step 1: Isolate the absolute value	|x + 4| - 6 < 9 |x + 4| < 15
Step 4: Solve the compound inequality	-19 < x < 11

How do you solve absolute value equations with no solution?

For example, |x|=−1 has no solution. The absolute value of a number is its distance away from zero. That number will always be positive, as you cannot be negative two feet away from something. So any absolute value equation set equal to a negative number is no solution, regardless of what that number is.

What if there is a negative sign outside the absolute value?

If there is a negative sign outside the absolute value sign, then the value of the absolute is a negative number.

Can you have a negative inside an absolute value?

The absolute value of a number is never negative. Take a look at some examples. The absolute value of 5 is 5. The distance from 5 to 0 is 5 units.

What is the absolute value of negative 3?

Absolute Value means ... The absolute value of −9 is 9. The absolute value of 3 is 3.

What is the absolute value of the square root of 2?

√2≈1.

What does the absolute value of a set mean?

The absolute value of a number is its magnitude or distance from the origin. Absolute value is defined in real numbers and in complex numbers.
