x = - \frac{8}{3} or x = - \frac{2}{3}

Decimal Notation

x = - 2.66666 \dots, x = - 0.66666 \dots

Solution steps

∣ 3 x + 5 ∣ = 3

Apply absolute rule: If

∣ u ∣ = a, a > 0

then

u = a

u = - a

3 x + 5 = - 3 or 3 x + 5 = 3

3 x + 5 = - 3 or 3 x + 5 = 3

x = - \frac{8}{3} or x = - \frac{2}{3}

2 x - 3 \cdot (5 x - 1) < 3 - (13 x + 8)

∣ 7 - 4 x ∣ = 5

∣ 6 - 16 x ∣ < - 13

\frac{16}{- 2}

x^{2} - y^{4}
