Equations And Inequalities Question 14

Question: The set of real values of x satisfying $ | x-1 |\le 3 $ And $ | x-1 |\ge 1 $ is

Options:

A) $ [2,4] $

B) $ (-\infty ,2]\cup [4,+\infty ) $

C) $ [-2,0]\cup [2,4] $

D) None of these

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: C

Solution:

  • [c] $ | x-1 |\le 3\Rightarrow -3\le x-1\le 3\Rightarrow -2\le x\le 4 $ and $ | x-1 |\ge 1\Rightarrow x-1\le -1orx-1\ge 1\Rightarrow x\le 0 $ $ orx\ge 2 $ Taking the common values of x, we get $ x\in [-2,0]\cup [2,4] $
