need help ASAP!!

Answer 1

y < - 8 or y > 4

Explanation:

Inequalities of the type | x | > a , always have solutions of the form

x < - a or x > a

Given

| y + 2 | > 6 , then

y + 2 < - 6 or y + 2 > 6

Solve each part

y + 2 < - 6 ( subtract 2 from both sides )

y < - 8

or

y + 2 > 6 ( subtract 2 from both sides )

y > 4

Solution is y < - 8 or y > 4
