Question
The two given numbers are coordinates of points $A$ and $B$, respectively, on a coordinate line. Express the indicated statement as an inequality involving the absolute value symbol.$$-2, x$$$d(A, B)$ is not less than 2
Step 1
In this case, the coordinates are $-2$ and $x$. So, the distance $d(A, B)$ is given by $|-2 - x|$ or equivalently $|x + 2|$. Show more…
