In Exercises \(103-104,\) use the graph of \(y=|4-x|\) to solve each inequality. $$ |4-x| \geq 5 $$
In Exercises 59–94, solve each absolute value inequality. $$ \left|2-\frac{x}{2}\right|-1 \leq 1 $$
A rectangular swimming pool is 12 meters long and 8 meters wide. A tile border of uniform width is to be built around the pool using 120 square meters of tile. The tile is from a discontinued stock (so no additional materials are available) and all 120 square meters are to be used. How wide should the border be? Round to the nearest tenth of a meter. If zoning laws require at least a 2 -meterwide border around the pool, can this be done with the available tile?
Solve equation by the method of your choice. $$ \sqrt{2} x^{2}+3 x-2 \sqrt{2}=0 $$
In Exercises 95–102, use interval notation to represent all values of x satisfying the given conditions. \(y=8-|5 x+3|\) and \(y\) is at least 6
