[ 2x+5]>9 2x+5<-9
-5 -5 -5 -5

2x<-14 2x>4
x<-7 x>2

the absolute value inequality is equivelent to 2x+5>9 or 2x+5<-9
-write eniqualities
-add 5 to each side
-divide each side by 2
-all real numbers greater than -7
-and greater than 2

c. Solve absolute value equations and inequalities analytically, graphically, and by using appropriate technology.
