If the universal set is U = R and A = {x ∈ R : |x + 1| ≥ 4}, what is A'?

Advertisement

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: (-5, 3)

The inequality |x + 1| ≥ 4 means x + 1 ≤ -4 or x + 1 ≥ 4. Therefore A = (-∞, -5] ∪ [3, ∞). Since the universal set is R, its complement consists of the real numbers strictly between -5 and 3: A' = (-5, 3). The endpoints are excluded because they belong to A.
