Answer the following questions correctly i will know if this is wrong. i will report any incorrect answers! criteria for getting brainliest and not getting reported: - and make sure not to post random answers points are taken away when you are reported so don't think about answering it if you want only just want points to move up. - you must put work 1. solve for x: |x| - 2 > 0

Answer by JKismyhusbandbae:

|x| - 2 > 0

|x| -2 + 2 > 0 + 2

|x| > 2

x < - 2 or x > 2

|x| - 2 > 0

first step is to get the absolute value alone

add 2 to each side

|x| - 2 +2> 0+2

|x|  > 2

then separate the absolute value in to inequalities, one positive and one negative (the negative flips the inequality)

x >2   or x<-2

 x >2   or x<-2

x is greater than 5

step-by-step explanation:

2x+7 is greater than 17

    -7                           -7

2x is greater than 10

divide by 2 each side

x is greater than 5
