Homework Statement



Resolve these equations and these inequations with the absolute values. Give the solutions in the form of interval :

|2-x|< 4

|6-2x| = 3

|x+2| > 3

|4x²-12x+9| = 4

|3x+1|+|1-x|>3

|1-x²|=2x

|x+2|<|x+3|

|x^3-1|+pi&amp;gt;\sqrt{3}&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; 3&amp;lt;|x+2|&amp;lt;4&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;h2&gt;Homework Equations&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;h2&gt;The Attempt at a Solution&lt;/h2&gt;

Way too hard to solve without some hints.
Have you done some work to help me out with?
 
you should try do them yourselves, I'm sure that if you think about them you can solve them =).

to get a 'feel'

|y|<c if and only if

-y>-c ánd y<c

if there is one you get stuck on, I or someone else will help you as you've shown what you've tried.
 
I have always felt that the best way to handle complicated inequalities is to first solve the connected equation (|2- x|= 4, etc.) The points where the two sides are equal separate "<" and ">".
 
There are two things I don't understand about this problem. First, when finding the nth root of a number, there should in theory be n solutions. However, the formula produces n+1 roots. Here is how. The first root is simply ##\left(r\right)^{\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}##. Then you multiply this first root by n additional expressions given by the formula, as you go through k=0,1,...n-1. So you end up with n+1 roots, which cannot be correct. Let me illustrate what I mean. For this...
