2-8Solving Absolute-Value Equations and Inequalities
A compound statement is made up of more than one equation or inequality.
A disjunction is a compound statement that uses the word or.
Disjunction: x ≤ –3 OR x > 2 Set builder notation: {x|x ≤ –3 U x > 2}
A disjunction is true if and only if at least one of its parts is true.

A conjunction is a compound statement that uses the word and.
Conjunction: x ≥ –3 AND x < 2 Set builder notation: {x|x ≥ –3 x < 2}.
A conjunction is true if and only if all of its parts are true. Conjunctions can be written as a single statement as shown.

Recall that the absolute value of a number x, written |x|, is the distance from x to zero on the number line. Because absolute value represents distance without regard to direction, the absolute value of any real number is nonnegative.

Absolute-value equations and inequalities can be represented by compound statements. Consider the equation |x| = 3.
The solutions of |x| = 3 are the two points that are 3 units from zero. The solution is a disjunction: x = –3 or x = 3.

Solve the equation.
Solving Absolute-Value Equations
Rewrite the absolute value as a disjunction.
This can be read as “the distance from k to –3 is 10.”
Add 3 to both sides of each equation.
|–3 + k| = 10
–3 + k = 10 or –3 + k = –10
k = 13 or k = –7

Solving Absolute-Value Inequalities with Disjunctions
Solve the inequality. Then graph the solution.
Rewrite the absolute value as a disjunction.
|–4q + 2| ≥ 10
–4q + 2 ≥ 10 or –4q + 2 ≤ –10
–4q ≥ 8 or –4q ≤ –12
Divide both sides of each inequality by –4 and reverse the inequality symbols.
Subtract 2 from both sides of each inequality.

|2x +7| ≤ 3 Multiply both sides by 3.
Subtract 7 from both sides of each inequality.
Divide both sides of each inequality by 2.

Solve the compound inequality. Then graph the solution set.
Solving Absolute-Value Inequalities with Conjunctions
|p – 2| ≤ –6Multiply both sides by –2, and reverse the inequality symbol.
Add 2 to both sides of each inequality.
Rewrite the absolute value as a conjunction.
|p – 2| ≤ –6 and p – 2 ≥ 6
p ≤ –4 and p ≥ 8
Because no real number satisfies both p ≤ –4 andp ≥ 8, there is no solution. The solution set is ø.
