The correct Answer is:
To solve the inequality \( \left| \frac{2x-1}{x-1} \right| > 2 \), we will break it down into two separate cases based on the properties of absolute values. ### Step 1: Set up the inequality The inequality can be expressed as two separate inequalities: 1. \( \frac{2x-1}{x-1} > 2 \) 2. \( \frac{2x-1}{x-1} < -2 \) ### Step 2: Solve the first inequality **Inequality 1:** \[ \frac{2x-1}{x-1} > 2 \] Multiply both sides by \( x - 1 \) (noting that we need to consider the sign of \( x - 1 \)): - If \( x - 1 > 0 \) (i.e., \( x > 1 \)): \[ 2x - 1 > 2(x - 1) \implies 2x - 1 > 2x - 2 \implies -1 > -2 \quad \text{(Always true)} \] Thus, for \( x > 1 \), the inequality holds. - If \( x - 1 < 0 \) (i.e., \( x < 1 \)): \[ 2x - 1 < 2(x - 1) \implies 2x - 1 < 2x - 2 \implies -1 < -2 \quad \text{(Never true)} \] Thus, there are no solutions for \( x < 1 \). ### Step 3: Solve the second inequality **Inequality 2:** \[ \frac{2x-1}{x-1} < -2 \] Again, multiply both sides by \( x - 1 \): - If \( x - 1 > 0 \) (i.e., \( x > 1 \)): \[ 2x - 1 < -2(x - 1) \implies 2x - 1 < -2x + 2 \implies 4x < 3 \implies x < \frac{3}{4} \] Since \( x > 1 \) and \( x < \frac{3}{4} \) cannot both be true, there are no solutions in this case. - If \( x - 1 < 0 \) (i.e., \( x < 1 \)): \[ 2x - 1 > -2(x - 1) \implies 2x - 1 > -2x + 2 \implies 4x > 3 \implies x > \frac{3}{4} \] Thus, for \( x < 1 \), we have the solution \( \frac{3}{4} < x < 1 \). ### Step 4: Combine the solutions From the two inequalities, we have: 1. From the first inequality: \( x > 1 \) 2. From the second inequality: \( \frac{3}{4} < x < 1 \) The overall solution set is the union of these intervals: \[ x \in \left( \frac{3}{4}, 1 \right) \cup (1, \infty) \] ### Final Answer The solution set of the inequation \( \left| \frac{2x-1}{x-1} \right| > 2 \) is: \[ \left( \frac{3}{4}, 1 \right) \cup (1, \infty) \]
