Q99 / 180 · KCET 2014 · Mathematics

The set \( A=\{x ;|2 x+3| < 7\} \) is equal to the set.

  • A
    \( B=\{x:-3 < x < 7\} \)
  • B
    \( C=\{x:-13 < 2 x < 4\} \)
  • Correct answer
    C
    \( D=\{x: 0 < x+5 < 7\} \)
  • D
    \( E=\{x:-7 < x < 7\} \)

Solution

Given $\mathrm{A}=\{x ;|2 x+3| < 7\}$ $\Rightarrow|2 x+3| < 7 \rightarrow < 2 x+3 < 7$ $\Rightarrow 10 < 2 x < 4 \Rightarrow-5 < x < 2$ $\Rightarrow 0 < x+5 < 7$ Therefore, $\operatorname{set} A=\{x:|2 x+3| < 7\}$ is equal to $D=\{x: 0 < x+5 < 7\}$

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
