Question 299903: solve compound inequality 4>-5x+3 or 10<=-4x+5 the answer option are a.(-1/5,infinity) b. (-infinity,infinity) c. (-infinity,-5/4 cup (-1//5,infinity) d. (-infinity,-5/4) help!!! Answer by Edwin McCravy(20054) (Show Source):
4>-5x+3 or 10<=-4x+5
Solve the first one:
<-------------------------------o==========================o===============>
-2 -1 -1/5 0 1 2
Solve the second one:
<==========================================================@--------------->
-2 -1 -1/5 0 1 5/4 2
We put those graphs one under the other, with numbers lined up
<-------------------------------o============================================>
-2 -1 -1/5 0 1 2
<==========================================================@----------------->
-2 -1 0 1 5/4 2
Every real number is on the upper graph or the lower graph, and
since the word between the inequalities is OR, the solution is
"all real numbers",
<===========================================================================>
-2 -1 0 1 2
In interval notation, that is (, )
Choice b.
