 |−2n| + 10 = −50

• {30, -30}

• {20,-20}

• {-5,5}

• No Solution

| x + 3 | ≤ 2

• No Solution

• x ≤ -1

• -5 ≤ x and x ≤ -1

• 1 ≤ x and x ≤ 5

What is the correct first step?

• divide by 10

• multiply by 10

• make it two inequalities with an "or"

• make it two inequalities with and "and"

| -8x | < 8

What is the correct first step?

• separate into two inequalities with an "and"

• separate into two inequalities with an "or"

• divide both sides by -8

• add 8 to both sides

• Function
• Not a Function
