I am having so much trouble with this one problem. It is solving compound inequalities with the word 'and'. -25<-5x<0 I really don't know how to solve this one. I would really appreciate it if someone would please help me solve this.
-------------
It says that -5x is more than -25, and -5x is less than zero.
Divide by 5:
-5<-x<0
Multiply by -1. When you do that, the < and > signs are reversed.
5>x>0
---------
x is between 0 and 5.
