What is the solution of |2x-5|<21

-8 < x < 13

Step-by-step explanation:

|2x-5|<21

The absolute value has 2 solutions, one positive and one negative. When we take the negative solution, we have to flip the inequality.

2x-5 - 21

Add 5 to each side

2x-5+5 - 21+5

2x - 16

Divide by 2

2x/2 - 16/2

x - 8

-8 < x < 13
