5>-4x+4 and 7< or equal to -4x+2
\n" ); document.write( "..
\n" ); document.write( "5>-4x+4
\n" ); document.write( "add -4 to both sides
\n" ); document.write( "1>-4x
\n" ); document.write( "divide both sides by 4
\n" ); document.write( "1/4>-x
\n" ); document.write( "multiply both sides by -1 and switch inequality sign
\n" ); document.write( "-1/4\n" ); document.write( "or
\n" ); document.write( " x>-1/4
\n" ); document.write( "..
\n" ); document.write( "7<=-4x+2
\n" ); document.write( "add-2 to both sides
\n" ); document.write( "5<=-4x
\n" ); document.write( "divide both sides by 4
\n" ); document.write( "5/4<=-x
\n" ); document.write( "multiply both sides by -1 and switch inequality sign
\n" ); document.write( "-5/4>=x
\n" ); document.write( "or
\n" ); document.write( "x<=-5/4\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "ans:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Since this is a compound inequality, in interval notation would be written:
\n" ); document.write( "(-infinity,-5/4] U (-1/4, infinity)
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
