Here are the solutions to the problems:

19. Solve the inequality: ∣2x+1∣>3|2x + 1| > 3

  1. Break the absolute value inequality into two separate inequalities.

    If ∣u∣>a|u| > a, then u>au > a or u<−au < -a.
    So, we have:

    2x+1>3or2x+1<−32x + 1 > 3 \quad \text{or} \quad 2x + 1 < -3
  2. Solve the first inequality.

    2x+1>32x + 1 > 3 2x>3−12x > 3 - 1 2x>22x > 2 x>22x > \frac{2}{2} x>1x > 1
  3. Solve the second inequality.

    2x+1<−32x + 1 < -3 2x<−3−12x < -3 - 1 2x<−42x < -4 x<−42x < \frac{-4}{2} x<−2x < -2
  4. Combine the solutions.

    The solution is x>1x > 1 or x<−2x < -2.

    The correct option is A.
    A. x>1 or x<−2\boxed{\text{A. } x > 1 \text{ or } x < -2}

    20. If A⊆BA \subseteq B and B⊆AB \subseteq A, then:

  5. Understand the definition of a subset.

    • A⊆BA \subseteq B means that every element in set AA is also an element in set BB.
    • B⊆AB \subseteq A means that every element in set BB is also an element in set AA.
  6. Apply the definitions to the given conditions.

    If AA is a subset of BB and BB is a subset of AA, it implies that both sets contain exactly the same elements. This is the definition of set equality.

  7. Conclude the relationship between A and B.

    Therefore, A=BA = B.

    The correct option is B.
    B. A=B\boxed{\text{B. } A = B}

    21. Rationalize: 15−2\frac{1}{\sqrt{5} - 2}

  8. Identify the conjugate of the denominator.

    The denominator is 5−2\sqrt{5} - 2. Its conjugate is 5+2\sqrt{5} + 2.

  9. Multiply the numerator and the denominator by the conjugate.

    15−2×5+25+2\frac{1}{\sqrt{5} - 2} \times \frac{\sqrt{5} + 2}{\sqrt{5} + 2}
  10. Perform the multiplication.

    In the numerator: 1×(5+2)=5+21 \times (\sqrt{5} + 2) = \sqrt{5} + 2.
    In the denominator, use the difference of squares formula (a−b)(a+b)=a2−b2(a - b)(a + b) = a^2 - b^2:

    (5−2)(5+2)=(5)2−(2)2(\sqrt{5} - 2)(\sqrt{5} + 2) = (\sqrt{5})^2 - (2)^2 =5−4= 5 - 4 =1= 1
  11. Write the simplified expression.

    5+21=5+2\frac{\sqrt{5} + 2}{1} = \sqrt{5} + 2

    The correct option is A.
    A. 5+2\boxed{\text{A. } \sqrt{5} + 2}

    22. If z=2−2iz = 2 - 2i, find ∣z∣|z|

  12. Identify the real and imaginary parts of the complex number.

    For a complex number z=a+biz = a + bi, aa is the real part and bb is the imaginary part.
    Here, z=2−2iz = 2 - 2i, so a=2a = 2 and b=−2b = -2.

  13. Use the formula for the modulus of a complex number.

    The modulus (or absolute value) of a complex number z=a+biz = a + bi is given by:

    ∣z∣=a2+b2|z| = \sqrt{a^2 + b^2}
  14. Substitute the values of aa and bb into the formula.

    ∣z∣=(2)2+(−2)2|z| = \sqrt{(2)^2 + (-2)^2}
  15. Calculate the squares and sum them.

    ∣z∣=4+4|z| = \sqrt{4 + 4} ∣z∣=8|z| = \sqrt{8}
  16. Simplify the square root.

    ∣z∣=4×2|z| = \sqrt{4 \times 2} ∣z∣=4×2|z| = \sqrt{4} \times \sqrt{2} ∣z∣=22|z| = 2\sqrt{2}

    The modulus of zz is 22\boxed{2\sqrt{2}}.
