Yes it does match D) but the word between them is OR, not AND 6 > -4x+5 OR 12 ≤ -3x+5 4x > -1 OR 3x ≤ -7 x >OR x ≤ That's the same as x ≤ OR x > x ≤ OR x > The graph of that is <====================⚫------------------⚪================================> -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 The circle on the left is closed because the inequality is ≤ and the one on the right is open because it's >. and the interval notation for that is (-∞,-7/3] ∪ (-1/4, ∞) The interval notation is just an abbreviation for the graph on the number line above: The ] indicates that IS included in the solution set, The ( indicates that is NOT included in the solution set, the ∪ indicates "OR", indicating a "jump" in the shading.
