Algebra.Com's Answer #322295 by lwsshak3(11628)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Solve the inequality. Express your solution using interval notation and please show all of your work. \n" ); document.write( "x(x + 6)(8 – x)≥ 0 \n" ); document.write( "... \n" ); document.write( "The best way I know how to show you how to find the solution is to first draw a number line with the zeros on it.
