Inequalities with Absolute Values

This page delves into disequazioni con valore assoluto, explaining different types and solution methods for inequalities involving absolute values.

First Type of Inequalities: |x| < K

For inequalities of the form |x| < K, where K is a positive real number:

• The solution is -K < x < K

Example: Solve |x| < 11 Solution: -11 < x < 11

Second Type of Inequalities: |A(x)| > K

For inequalities of this type:

• If K > 0, the solution is A(x) < -K or A(x) > K
• If K = 0, the solution is all real numbers except where A(x) = 0
• If K < 0, the solution is all real numbers

Example: Solve |x| > 2 Solution: x < -2 or x > 2

Third Type of Inequalities: |A(x)| < K

For inequalities of this type:

• If K > 0, the solution is -K < A(x) < K
• If K = 0, the solution is A(x) = 0
• If K < 0, there is no solution

Highlight: The third type of inequality follows the same principle as equations with absolute values.

The page also covers more complex inequalities, such as those involving fractions or multiple absolute value terms.

Example: Solve |(2x + 1) / (x + 8)| < 1 Solution: Solve the compound inequality: -1 < (2x + 1) / (x + 8) < 1 Solve each part separately and combine the results.
