solve and graph this problem?
2x-9<-4 or x-7>3
--------------------------
Solve both inequailties for "x":
x < (5/2) or x > 10
-------------------------------
Draw a number line.
Mark appropriate points as x=5/2 and x=10
----------------
Draw an open circle at point x=5/2
Dras a closed circle at point x=10
----------------------------
Draw an arrow to the left from x = (5/2)
Draw an arrow to the right from x= 10
========================
That is the graph you want.
