Chapter P.2, Problem 49E
Solution

Write the given statement using absolute value notation.

  x−4=3

Given information:

Statement is:

“The distance between x and 4 is 3.”

Formula used:

Absolute value is representation on either side of the expression given by two parallel line.

Absolute value x means:

  x=x if x is positive−x if x is negative

For example, if the distance between x and y is a this is represented by absolute value notation as:

  x−y=a

Calculation:

To write the given statement using absolute value notation first note that for any x :

  x=x if x is positive−x if x is negative

Now, note that the distance between x and y is a this is represented by absolute value notation as:

  x−y=a

Here, the given statement is:

“The distance between x and 4 is 3.”

Thus, it can be represented by absolute value notation as:

  x−4=3

Thus, the absolute value notation of the given statement is:

  x−4=3
