Absolute Value Inequalities

The video tutorial guides students through solving an absolute value inequality. It begins with isolating the absolute value expression, then considers both cases of the inequality. The solution is represented in interval notation and graphically. The tutorial emphasizes understanding the process and visualizing the solution.

What is the first step to solve the inequality involving absolute values?

Explain how to handle the absolute value signs when solving the inequality.

What do you need to do after simplifying the inequality to drop the absolute values?

How do you express the solution of the inequality in interval notation?

What does it mean for a circle on a number line to be filled in or open in the context of inequalities?
