substitute and solve for x ___ 400 < 5000x /(x^2+36)\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "400x^2 + 14400 < 5000x\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "2x^2 - 25x + 72 < 0\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "factoring ___ (2x - 9)(x - 8) < 0\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "if x < 4.5 , both factors are < 0 , so the product is >0
