Explaining the Concepts. When graphing the solutions of an inequality, what does a parenthesis signify? What does a square bracket signify?
In Exercises 59–94, solve each absolute value inequality. $$ \left|2-\frac{x}{2}\right|-1 \leq 1 $$
Determine whether each statement makes sense or does not make sense, and explain your reasoning. I'll win the contest if I can complete the crossword puzzle in 20 minutes plus or minus 5 minutes, so my winning time, \(x\), is modeled by \(|x-20| \leq 5\)
In Exercises 122–133, use the strategy for solving word problems, modeling the verbal conditions of the problem with a linear inequality. You are choosing between two texting plans. Plan A has a monthly fee of 15 dollar with a charge of 0.08 dollar per text. Plan \(B\) has a monthly fee of 3 dollar with a charge of 0.12 dollar per text. How many text messages in a month make plan A the better deal?
Determine whether each statement makes sense or does not make sense, and explain your reasoning. I can check inequalities by substituting 0 for the variable: When 0 belongs to the solution set, I should obtain a true statement, and when 0 does not belong to the solution set, I should obtain a false statement.
