Answer :

Sure, let's solve the given problem step-by-step.

Problem Statement:
If ' [tex]\( r \)[/tex] ' is a real number such that [tex]\( |r| < 1 \)[/tex] and if [tex]\( a = 5(1-r) \)[/tex], then:

(A) [tex]\( -5 < a < 5 \)[/tex]

(B) [tex]\( 0 < a < 5 \)[/tex]

(C) [tex]\( 0 < a < 10 \)[/tex]

(D) [tex]\( 0 \leq a < 10 \)[/tex]

To determine the range of [tex]\( a \)[/tex], we start with the given inequality for [tex]\( r \)[/tex]:

[tex]\[ |r| < 1 \][/tex]

This implies:

[tex]\[ -1 < r < 1 \][/tex]

Next, we use the given expression for [tex]\( a \)[/tex]:

[tex]\[ a = 5(1 - r) \][/tex]

We will evaluate [tex]\( a \)[/tex] for the extreme values of [tex]\( r \)[/tex].

1. When [tex]\( r = -1 \)[/tex]:

[tex]\[ a = 5(1 - (-1)) \][/tex]
[tex]\[ a = 5(1 + 1) \][/tex]
[tex]\[ a = 5 \times 2 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ a = 10 \][/tex]

2. When [tex]\( r = 1 \)[/tex]:

[tex]\[ a = 5(1 - 1) \][/tex]
[tex]\[ a = 5 \times 0 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ a = 0 \][/tex]

Therefore, the resulting range of [tex]\( a \)[/tex] when [tex]\( -1 < r < 1 \)[/tex] is:

[tex]\[ 0 \leq a < 10 \][/tex]

Hence, the correct option is:

(D) [tex]\( 0 \leq a < 10 \)[/tex]

Next Problem Statement:
Set of solution for: [tex]\( \left| x + \frac{1}{1} \right| > 7 \)[/tex]

First, rewrite the expression inside the absolute value correctly:

[tex]\[ \left| x + 1 \right| > 7 \][/tex]

The property of absolute values gives us two separate inequalities:

[tex]\[ x + 1 > 7 \qquad \text{or} \qquad x + 1 < -7 \][/tex]

Solve each inequality separately.

1. For [tex]\( x + 1 > 7 \)[/tex]:

[tex]\[ x > 7 - 1 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ x > 6 \][/tex]

2. For [tex]\( x + 1 < -7 \)[/tex]:

[tex]\[ x < -7 - 1 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ x < -8 \][/tex]

Thus, the solution set for the given inequality is:

[tex]\[ x > 6 \quad \text{or} \quad x < -8 \][/tex]

In interval notation, this can be written as:

[tex]\[ x \in (-\infty, -8) \cup (6, \infty) \][/tex]

So, the solution set for [tex]\( \left| x + 1 \right| > 7 \)[/tex] is:

[tex]\[ (-\infty, -8) \cup (6, \infty) \][/tex]
