| Question 807582:  I would love to have help on this, this homework/class expires Sunday. I was sick when I had to do this in public school, so I missed the lesson, but ended up staying after school one day for it, I am still stuggling with this type of math, and would like to have help as soon as I can. Here is the question
 two inequalities follow
 -26<4k -2 and 2k-1<5
 write a compound inequality to comine the inequalities shown previiously.
 Now to combine them wouldn't I take like 4k and 2k and have it like 6k and then like -26 and -1 and have -27 and for the 5 and -2 it would be like 3?
 So my new inequalite would be something like
 -27<6k-3

 The "AND" means k has to satisfy both conditions.

 k > -6
 ---------
 AND

 2k-1 < 5
 2k < 6
