Absolute value less than some value [closed]

$begingroup$


This is a noob question. If,
$$biggm| frac{1}{2} - e biggm | le n$$
Then how do I get the following?
$$e le frac{1}{2} + n$$

          Having $lvert a - b rvert leq c$ is basically the same as $lvert b - a rvert leq c$.



          You can also think of distances. The distance between $a$ and $b$ is less than $c$. If you imagine dots on the number line and keep the distance thingy in mind it should be very easy to see.

            Observe that if $dfrac{1}{2} - n leq e$, the first equation holds.



            Plot the graph of the absolut value function. All values of $x$ such that $|x|leq n$ lie in the interval $[-n,n]$, i.e.
            $$xin[-n,n] iff |x|leq n.$$



            Substitute the right hand side of the equation where $x$ is to get
            $$| e + dfrac{1}{2}| leq n iff e + dfrac{1}{2} in [-n,n] iff -nleq e + dfrac{1}{2} leq n.$$ For solving it, you need to solve both inequalities:
            $$-nleq e + dfrac{1}{2}$$
            $$e + dfrac{1}{2} leq n.$$

              You have to know that
              $$[a-b|le ciff b-cle ale b+c,$$
              and remener tha $|a-b|=|b-a|.
