The correct Answer is:
To solve the inequality \((|x|-1)(|x|-2) \geq 0\) with the condition that \(x \neq \pm 2\), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify Critical Points The expression \((|x|-1)(|x|-2)\) will be zero at the points where \(|x| = 1\) and \(|x| = 2\). Thus, the critical points are: - \(|x| = 1\) gives us \(x = 1\) and \(x = -1\). - \(|x| = 2\) gives us \(x = 2\) and \(x = -2\). ### Step 2: Determine Intervals The critical points divide the real number line into the following intervals: 1. \( (-\infty, -2) \) 2. \( (-2, -1) \) 3. \( (-1, 1) \) 4. \( (1, 2) \) 5. \( (2, \infty) \) ### Step 3: Test Each Interval We will test a point from each interval to determine where the expression \((|x|-1)(|x|-2)\) is non-negative. 1. **Interval \( (-\infty, -2) \)**: Choose \(x = -3\) \[ (|-3|-1)(|-3|-2) = (3-1)(3-2) = 2 \cdot 1 = 2 \quad (\text{positive}) \] 2. **Interval \( (-2, -1) \)**: Choose \(x = -1.5\) \[ (|-1.5|-1)(|-1.5|-2) = (1.5-1)(1.5-2) = 0.5 \cdot (-0.5) = -0.25 \quad (\text{negative}) \] 3. **Interval \( (-1, 1) \)**: Choose \(x = 0\) \[ (|0|-1)(|0|-2) = (-1)(-2) = 2 \quad (\text{positive}) \] 4. **Interval \( (1, 2) \)**: Choose \(x = 1.5\) \[ (|1.5|-1)(|1.5|-2) = (1.5-1)(1.5-2) = 0.5 \cdot (-0.5) = -0.25 \quad (\text{negative}) \] 5. **Interval \( (2, \infty) \)**: Choose \(x = 3\) \[ (|3|-1)(|3|-2) = (3-1)(3-2) = 2 \cdot 1 = 2 \quad (\text{positive}) \] ### Step 4: Compile Results From our tests, we find: - The expression is non-negative in the intervals \( (-\infty, -2) \), \( (-1, 1) \), and \( (2, \infty) \). - At the critical points \(x = -1\) and \(x = 1\), the expression equals zero. - However, \(x = 2\) and \(x = -2\) are not included in our solution set. ### Step 5: Write the Final Solution Combining the intervals where the expression is non-negative and considering the restrictions, we have: \[ x \in (-\infty, -2) \cup [-1, 1] \cup (2, \infty) \]
