MAM1110H - Tutorial 1 - 2024

FUNCTIONS: Absolute Values and Inequalities

1. Rewrite the expression without using the absolute value symbol

(a) |5 − 23| (e) |x − 2| if x < 2


(b) |π − 2|
√ (f) |x − 2| if x > 2
(c) | 5 − 5|
(d) || − 2| − | − 3|| (g) |x2 + 1|

2. Solve the inequality for x.

(a) 2x + 7 > 3 (k) x2 ≥ 5


(b) 4 − 3x ≥ 6 (l) (x + 1)(x − 2)(x + 3) ≥ 0
(c) 1 − x ≤ 2 (m) x3 > x
(d) 1 + 5x > 5 − 3x (n) x3 + 3x < 4x2
(e) 2(x − 2) + 3x ≥ 5x + 1 1
(o) <4
3x − 3 1 x
(f) − >− x
6 2 2
(p) ≥5
(g) 0 ≤ 1 − x < 1 x+2
(h) 1 < 3x + 4 ≤ 16 1 x+1
(q) ≥
x x+4
(i) (x − 1)(x − 2) > 0
1
(j) x2 < 2x + 8 (r) −3 < ≤ 1
x

3. Solve the equation for x

(a) |3x + 5| = 1 (c) 3|1 − x| + 5 = 0


(b) |x + 2| = 3x (d) |x + 3| = |2x + 1|

4. Solve the inequality for x. Write your answer in interval notation.

(a) |x| < 3 (d) |x + 5| ≥ 2


(b) |x| ≥ 3 (e) |2x − 3| ≤ 0.4
(c) |x − 4| < 1 (f) |5x − 2| < 6

5. Solve the inequality a(bx − c) ≥ bc for x, assuming that a, b and c are positive constants.

6. Solve the inequality ax + b < c for x, assuming that a, b, and c are negative constants.
