Chapter 2: Q23. (page 106)

Solve each equation. Then graph the solution set.
$|f + 10| = 1$

Short Answer

Expert verified

The equation $|f + 10| = 1$ has solution set as $n = - 9$ and $n = - 11$ and the graph of the solution set is:

Step by step solution

Step-1. Define absolute value equation.

For any real numbers a and b, if $|a| = b$ and $b \geq 0$ , then $a = b$ or $a = - b$ .

Step-2. Formulate case 1 when f+10=1.

Simplify the expression for f.

$\begin{matrix} f + 10 - 10 = 1 - 10 \\ f = - 9 \end{matrix}$

Step-3. Formulate case 2 when f+10=−1.

Simplify the expression for f.

$\begin{matrix} f + 10 - 10 = - 1 - 10 \\ f = - 11 \end{matrix}$

Step-4. Plot the graph of the solution set.

From case 1 and case 2, $f = - 9, - 11$ . Plot these values on the number line.
