Solve the inequality |6x + 2| < 10 and graph its solution.

This is a modulus inequality.
First part: when (6x + 2) is positive
6x + 2 < 10
6x < 10 - 2
6x < 8
x < 8/6
x < 4/3

Second part: when (6x + 2) is negative.

-(6x + 2) < 10   Divide both sides of inequality by -1 and change the sign.

  (6x + 2) > -10
   6x + 2 > -10
   6x > -10 - 2
   6x > -12        Divide both sides by 6.
     x > -12/6
     x > -2.

Combined solution:   x < 4/3  and x > -2

  -2 < x < 4/3.

Graph is a line on the number line between -2 and 4/3.  
 
-2 and 4/3 are excluded from solution.

I’m pretty sure the * means multiplication. so, if you multiply 5*1, it would equal 5. they are basically are-writing 5x1 as 5*1. so they would be… 5 10152025303540455055
