Answer:

See solutions below

Explanation:

For what values of X are the statements below true

A. 1x>x+1

x >x+1

x-x>1

0x > 1

x > 1/0

X >∞

B) |1-x|>3

The fucntion can both be positive and negative

For the negative function

-(1-x) > 3

-1+x > 3

x > 3+1

x > 4

For the positive function

1-x > 3

-x > 3 - 1

-x > 2

x < -2

Hence the required solutions are x > 4 and x < -2

c) For the equation

|x-15| < 0

-(x - 15) < 0

-x + 15 < 0

-x < -15

x > 15

Also x-15 < 0

x < 0+15

x < 15

Hence the required solution is x > 15 and x < 15
