## anonymous 4 years ago |y|=3 Solve each equation or inequality if there is no solution write no solution

1. anonymous

$y=\pm3$

2. anonymous

Since it is Modulus.

3. myininaya

|dw:1351174743695:dw| What two numbers have distance 3 from 0?

4. anonymous

1 and 2

5. anonymous

Lol...She asked Abt the Distance 3 from 0 form 2 numbers b/w 0 and 3

6. anonymous

not 2 numbers b/w 0 and 3

7. anonymous

So the answer would be ?

8. myininaya

What numbers have distance 3 from 0? What is the distance from 0 to 3? What is the distance from 0 to -3?

9. anonymous

there is 2 numbers between 0 to 3

10. myininaya

distance.... is?

11. myininaya

Count the spaces from 0 to 3 on this number line: |dw:1351175542101:dw|

12. anonymous

or Do u Knw abt Modulus Function..) ???

13. anonymous

3 spaces @myininaya and no I don't @Yahoo!

14. anonymous

3 Places... To be more SPecific

15. myininaya

So the distance from 0 to 3 is 3 What about the distance from 0 to -3?

16. anonymous

Yeah 3 spaces and from 0 to -3 is 3 spaces again

17. myininaya

So this equation that you wrote |y|=3 Tells us to find the values (here they are called y) that have distance 3 from 0. So you told me that -3 has distance 3 from 0 You also told me that 3 has distance 3 from 0

18. anonymous

Yes

19. myininaya

So the solutions are?

20. anonymous

there is a solution ?

21. myininaya

The solutions are the values that satisfy |y|=3

22. anonymous

Oh so the answer is solution ?

23. myininaya

Yes the solutions are the answer

24. anonymous

Thanks !
