If your assigned number is: |
Your “and” compound inequality is : |
Your “or” compound inequality is : |
|
42 |
–10 < 3x + 1 < 5 |
3x – 2 ≤ 2 or 3 – x ≤ 1 |
· Solve the compound inequalities as demonstrated in Elementary and Intermediate Algebra and the Instructor Guidance in the left navigation toolbar, in your online course. Be careful of how a negative x-term is handled in the solving process. Show all math work arriving at the solutions.
· Show the solution sets written algebraically and as a union or intersection of intervals. Describe in words what the solution sets mean, and then display a simple line graph for each solution set. This is demonstrated in the Instructor Guidance in the left navigation toolbar, in your online course.
· Incorporate the following five math vocabulary words into your discussion. Use bold font to emphasize the words in your writing. Do not write definitions for the words; use them appropriately in sentences describing your math work.
· Compound inequalities
· And
· Or
· Intersection
· Union
