You can put this solution on YOUR website!
(X^2-2X)/(X^2-9) > 0
-------------
When you are asked to graph an inequality you
must first graph the equality which is the boundary
of the inequality. Then you must determine which
area determined by the boundary contains the solutions
for the inequality.
Here is the boundary:
graph%28400%2C300%2C-10%2C10%2C-10%2C10%2C%28x%5E2-2x%29%2F%28x%5E2-9%29%29
-------------
Since you want "greater than" the area you want is
all the points above the boundary.
