Sample task from our practice test “Kolleg-Probetest Karlsruhe (KIT) · T-Kurs”
Für welche reellen x gilt |x − 1| < 2x + 4?
- −5 < x < −1
- x > 1
- x > −1
- x > −5
Show answer and solution
Answer: x > −1
Fall x ≥ 1: x − 1 < 2x + 4 → x > −5 → alle x ≥ 1. Fall x < 1: 1 − x < 2x + 4 → x > −1 → −1 < x < 1. Zusammen: x > −1.
