Hello again!

|a| ≤ 3

Solve for the absolute value

We know either a ≤ 3 and a ≥ -3

So we have a ≤ 3 and a ≥ -3

Thus,

The correct answer is option A

Hello there! The lines between the a are absolute value symbols, and absolute value symbols are always positive. They are the distance a number is away from 0. We are looking at the values less than 3, so this is definitely not an or statement. C and D are eliminated. The compound inequality would be -3 ≤ x ≤ 3. A is the answer choice that fits this. The answer is A.
