QuestionFind δ\delta so that if x2<δ|x-2|<\delta, then 4x8<0.9|4x-8|<0.9.

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. We are given that x<δ|x-|<\delta . We want to find a δ\delta such that 4x8<ε|4x-8|<\varepsilon
3. We are given that ε=0.9\varepsilon=0.9

STEP 2

First, we need to simplify the expression 4x8|4x-8|.
4x8=4x2|4x-8| =4|x-2|

STEP 3

We want to find a δ\delta such that x2<ε|x-2|<\varepsilon. We can express this asx2<ε|x-2|<\varepsilon

STEP 4

To isolate x2|x-2|, we divide both sides of the inequality by4.
x2<ε4|x-2|<\frac{\varepsilon}{4}

STEP 5

Now, we can substitute the given value of ε\varepsilon into the inequality.
x2<0.94|x-2|<\frac{0.9}{4}

STEP 6

Calculate the value of 0.94\frac{0.9}{4}.
x2<0.225|x-2|<0.225

STEP 7

So, we find that δ\delta should be 0.2250.225 to satisfy the given conditions. Therefore, if x2<0.225|x-2|<0.225, then 4x<0.9|4x-|<0.9.
The value of δ\delta is 0.2250.225.
