Justem is the answer to that question -3 < x < 1

I did it without graphing (#yolo) so it's probably wrong but it would make sense if it were actually an answer because of the identity:

l f (x) l < a

-a < f (x) < a

^ Idek the f (x) is meant to equal the value in the modulus and so on...

I just use this identity from the Cambridge Book then again I probably got it wrong because I didn't graph it, I'm sick and feeling really derpy atm :/

That's what I got :L
I believe the reason why u guys are getting that answer (x> 1 and x>-3) is because u are just multiplying the 2x up but that's wrong because u don't know whether x is positive or negative. If it's negative the sign would change. So like soulful said, you need to multiply both sides by the square of the denominator because squaring a number always makes it positive.

Is this part of 2U or 3U maths ?

I saw how you did it and I was so confused... Lol.. You're so smart! I was sorta praying that wasn't 2U maths :D

Wow. U need a break. There's no point studying if you are half - asleep so I suggest taking a power nap (exactly 30 min). Can I ask what exercise u are up to in class?
