You can put this solution on YOUR website!
\"+%28x-17%29+%2F+%28%28x-20%29%2A%28x%2B9%29%29+%3C+0+\"
\n" ); document.write( "I can use logic to find answer
\n" ); document.write( "Clearly, if \"+x%3C17\", you have minus factors
\n" ); document.write( "on top and bottom and left side is >0
\n" ); document.write( "If \"x=17\", left side = 0
\n" ); document.write( "If \"+17%3Cx%3C20\", you have a (+) on top
\n" ); document.write( "and a (-) on the bottom, and left side <0
\n" ); document.write( "If \"x=20\" the bottom = 0, which is infinity
\n" ); document.write( "If \"x+%3E20\", top and bottom are (+)/(+)
\n" ); document.write( "and left side >0
\n" ); document.write( "The solution, then is \"+17%3Cx%3C20+\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
