EXAMPLE 2
Solve an absolute value equation
Solve |5x – 10 | = 45.
SOLUTION
| 5x – 10 | = 45
Write original equation.
5x – 10 = 45 or 5x – 10 = –45 Expression can equal 45 or –45 .
5x = 55 or
5x = –35
x = 11 or
x = –7
Add 10 to each side.
Divide each side by 5.

EXAMPLE 4
Solve an inequality of the form |ax + b| > c
Solve |4x + 5| > 13. Then graph the solution.
SOLUTION
The absolute value inequality is equivalent to
4x +5 < –13 or 4x + 5 > 13.
First Inequality
4x + 5 < –13
4x < –18
x<– 9
2
Second Inequality
Write inequalities.
4x + 5 > 13
Subtract 5 from each side.
4x > 8
Divide each side by 4.
x>2
EXAMPLE 4

EXAMPLE 5
Solve an inequality of the form |ax + b| ≤ c
Baseball A professional baseball should weigh 5.125
ounces, with a tolerance of 0.125 ounce. Write and
solve an absolute value inequality that describes the
acceptable weights for a baseball.
SOLUTION
STEP 1
Write a verbal model. Then write an
inequality.
EXAMPLE 5
STEP 2
Solve an inequality of the form |ax + b| ≤ c
Solve the inequality.
|w – 5.125| ≤ 0.125
– 0.125 ≤ w – 5.125 ≤ 0.125
5 ≤ w ≤ 5.25
Write inequality.
Write equivalent compound
inequality.
Add 5.125 to each expression.
ANSWER
So, a baseball should weigh between 5 ounces and
5.25 ounces, inclusive. The graph is shown below.
GUIDED PRACTICE
for Examples 5 and 6
Solve the inequality. Then graph the solution.
10. |x + 2| < 6
ANSWER
–8 < x < 4

12. |7 – x| ≤ 4
ANSWER
3 ≤ x ≤ 11
The solutions are all real numbers less than 3 or
greater than 11. The graph is shown below.
Solve |x – 5| = 7. Graph the solution.
SOLUTION
|x– 5|=7
x– 5=–7
Write original equation.
or x – 5 = 7
Write equivalent equations.
x = 5 – 7 or
x=5+7
Solve for x.
x = –2
x = 12
Simplify.
or
The solutions are –2 and 12. These are the values
of x that are 7 units away from 5 on a number line.
The graph is shown below.
EXAMPLE 3
Check for extraneous solutions
Solve |2x + 12 | = 4x. Check for extraneous solutions.
SOLUTION
| 2x + 12 | = 4x
Write original equation.
2x + 12 = 4x or 2x + 12 = – 4x Expression can equal 4x or – 4 x
12 = 2x or 12 = –6x
6=x
or –2 = x
Add –2x to each side.
Solve for x.
