MCQ
Solve: $\frac{-1}{(|\text{x}| – 2)}\geq1$ where $\text{x}\in\text{R}, \text{x}\neq\pm2$
  • A
    $(-2, -1)$
  • B
    $(-2, 2)$
  • C
    $(-2, -1)\cup(1, 2)$
  • D
    $\text{None of these}$

Answer

  1. $(-2, -1)\cup(1, 2)$

Solution:

Given, $\frac{-1}{(|\text{x}| – 2)}\geq1$

$\Rightarrow\frac{-1}{(|\text{x}|-2) -1}\geq0$

$\Rightarrow\frac{-1 – (|\text{x}| – 2)}{(|\text{x}| – 2)}\geq0$

$\Rightarrow\frac{1 – |\text{x}|}{(|\text{x}| – 2)}\geq0$

$\Rightarrow\frac{-(|\text{x}| – 1)}{(|\text{x}| – 2)}\geq0$

Using number line rule:

$1\leq |\text{x}|<2$

$\Rightarrow\text{x}\in(-2, -1)\cup(1, 2)$
