If |x – 1| > 5, then A.x ∈ (–4, 6) B. x ∈ [–4, 6] C. x ∈ [∞, –4) ∪ (6, ∞) D. x ∈ [–∞, –4) ∪ [6, ∞) |

Answer» D. x ∈ (-∞, -4) ∪ (6, ∞) Given, |x – 1| > 5 There are two cases, (x – 1) > 5 ⇒ x > 6 ⇒ x ∈ (6, ∞) [1] And -(x – 1) > 5 ⇒ -x + 1 > 5 ⇒ -x > 4 ⇒ x < -4 [Multiplication by negative inverts the inequality sign] ⇒ x ∈ (-∞, -4) [2] From [1] and [2], we get ⇒ x ∈ (-∞, -4) ∪ (6, ∞) |
