(x+6)(x-15)(x+2)is greater than 0
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "Find the boundary values: x= -6,15,-2
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Plot those values on a number line.
\n" ); document.write( "at -6,-2,15
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "Check a test value in each of the resulting
\n" ); document.write( "line intervals in the inequality to see where
\n" ); document.write( "the solutions are:
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "(x+6)(x-15)(x+2)> 0
\n" ); document.write( "Check x = -20: -*-*- >0 ; false so no solutions in (-inf,-15)
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Check x = -4: +*-*- >0 ; true so solutions in (-6,-2)
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Check x = 0; +*-*+ >0 false so no solutions in (-2,15)
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "Check x = 20: +*+*+ >0 ; true so solutions in (15,+inf)
\n" ); document.write( "=========================
\n" ); document.write( "Solution: (-6,-2)U(15,+inf)
