Graph the set on the number line. Then, write the set using interval notation. 7 |x + 3| ≤ 14
We will solve the inequality to find its solution set and then plot it on a number line.
Answer: The solution set for 7 |x + 3| ≤ 14 using interval notation is [-5, -1]. The graph is shown below.
Let us solve the inequality 7 |x + 3| ≤ 14.
Explanation:
Divide both sides of the inequality 7 |x + 3| ≤ 14 by 7
|x + 3| ≤ 14/7
⇒ |x + 3| ≤ 2
⇒ - 2 ≤ x + 3 ≤ 2
Subtract 3 throughout in - 2 ≤ x + 3 ≤ 2
⇒ - 2 - 3 ≤ x + 3 - 3 ≤ 2 - 3
⇒ -5 ≤ x ≤ -1
The interval notation to express the set -5 ≤ x ≤ -1 is [-5, -1].
You can use Cuemath's Interval Notation Calculator that helps to plot the set on a number line.
The graph of the solution set is shown below.
Therefore, the solution set for 7 |x + 3| ≤ 14 using interval notation is [-5, -1].
