Homework Help Overview

The discussion revolves around solving a logarithmic inequality involving absolute values, specifically the expression log3 |3-4x| > 2. The original poster expresses difficulty in approaching this type of problem, particularly due to the presence of the modulus function.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Assumption checking

Approaches and Questions Raised

  • Participants discuss the nature of absolute values and suggest methods to handle them, including breaking down the expression based on the conditions of the variables involved. The original poster seeks clarification on solving similar problems.

Discussion Status

Some participants have provided insights into the rules of engagement for homework help, emphasizing the importance of showing effort before receiving assistance. There is acknowledgment of the original poster's struggle, but no consensus or complete solutions have been reached.

Contextual Notes

The original poster indicates a broader context of multiple questions involving modulus functions, suggesting a need for foundational understanding rather than just solutions to individual problems.

Got a load of Logarithmic Inequalities questions. Solved almost all of them but got stuck in a question. here's the question:-

log3 |3-4x| > 2

Please help.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Where are you getting hung at?
 
One thing that might help is to get rid of the absolute values.
|a - b| = a - b, if a > b, and
|a - b| = -(a - b) = b - a, if a < b
 
i stucked because i forgot how to solve questions having a mod function. :(
If someone could solve this one, i may get a idea because there are many questions with me having a modulus function with them and this is a simple one (I guess so).

please someone solve this out...
 
No, we won't solve your problems for you. See the rules.
This part is under Homework Help.
On helping with questions: Any and all assistance given to homework assignments or textbook style exercises should be given only after the questioner has shown some effort in solving the problem. If no attempt is made then the questioner should be asked to provide one before any assistance is given. Under no circumstances should complete solutions be provided to a questioner, whether or not an attempt has been made.
 
Thanks Mark44 for your solution.
it worked for me.
And also thamks for notifying me, can you please provide me with a link where i can learn about the rules and regulations of board?
