Your “and” compound  inequality is :

Your “or” compound inequality is :

10 ≤ 2 + 4x < 20

Compound Inequalities are:

10 2 4x 20 This is my Compound Inequality

10 2 2 4x 2 20 2 Add 2 to all three parts of the inequality

12 4x 22

12 4 4x 4 22 4 Divide all three parts by 4

3 x 5.5 Written algebraically

So a value of x that is less than or equal to 3 and less than or equal to 5.5 can make the inequality true. This 3 x 5.5 is how this compound inequality is written. As an intersection of sets it would come to look like [ 3, ) (-, 5.5] which equals [3, 5.5] in interval notation.

Your “and” compound  inequality is :

Your “or” compound inequality is :

0 ≤ –3 + 8x ≤ 22

2x – 9 ≤ 3   or   3x – 8 > 28

Assigned Number 27

My Week 2 Discussion compound inequalities are as follows;

1. 0 ≤ -3 + 8x ≤ 22 First step is to add 3 to all parts of this inequality

1. 0 +3 ≤ -3 + 8x +3 ≤ 22 +3

1. 3 ≤ 8x ≤ 25 Now divide by 8

1. 3 ÷ 8 ≤ 8x ÷ 8 ≤ 25 ÷ 8

1. 3/8 ≤ x ≤ 25/8 or .375 ≤ x ≤ 3.125 Written algebraically

This states that x is greater than or equal to .375 and less than or equal to 3.125.

-----------│---[------------------]----

0 .375 3.125

The intersection of the sets would be written as [.375, ∞)ᴖ(-∞, 3.125]

Now the “or” compound inequality;

1. 2x – 9 ≤ 3 or 3x -8 > 28

1. 2x – 9 +9 ≤ 3 + 9 or 3x -8 + 8 > 28 + 8 I must add in both compound inequalities

1. 2x ≤ 12 or 3x > 36 Now, divide in order to solve for the variable

1. 2x/2 ≤ 12/2 or 3x/3 > 36/3

1. x ≤ 6 or x > 12 Written algebraically

This compound inequality written in set notation as the union of the two intervals is

(-∞, 6]ᴗ(12, ∞).
