Hi, I am trying to learn inequality concepts and wanted to understand how to tackle inequaltities involving two variables. For e.g. how should I approach the problem below:
|x+3| + |y+4| <3
I don't have the answers since I have made this question to understand the concepts. Any help please?
Thanks
Kris

Ouch ! 2 variables makes this very messy in general. But in your case, you can simplify using a neat trick
Consider the equation |x|+|y|<3 It is easy to see the values that satisfy this. In quadrant 1, it will be all the points on the triangle formed by the x-axis,y-axis and the line x/3+y/3=1 And in the other quadrants it will be a mirror image of these points
Now the equation you have given just translates this solution to x=-3 and y=-4 So it will be the exact same region just shifted to be centred at (-3,-4) instead of (0,0)
