You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Solve each part separately first
2%3Ex%2B3%3E-8 break it up as
2%3Ex%2B3 and x%2B3%3E-8
now solve each part
2%3Ex%2B3
-1%3Ex --> x%3C-1
x%2B3%3E-8
x+%3E+-11
Now plot them both and find where they are 'both true"
in this case, you would the numbers that satisfy both equations are
-11%3Cx%3C-1
