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 answerC\( D=\{x: 0 < x+5 < 7\} \)
- 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'.
