Question 265535: can you help me with this one please?
Solve the inequality. Give the result in interval notation.
4x + 6 < 10 or 2x − 9 > 5

Answer by Theo(13342)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
you have 2 equations:

4x + 6 < 10 is the first equation.

subtract 6 from both sides of this equation to get:

4x < 4

divide both sides of this equation by 4 to get:

x < 1

2x-9 > 5 is the second equation.

add 9 to both sides of this equation to get:

2x > 14

divide both sides of this equation by 2 to get:

x > 7

your answers are:

x < 1 or x > 7

this can be written as:

(x<1) union (x>7)

in interval notation, it would probably look like this:

(,1) union (7,).

here's a reference for interval notation.
