Solve the inequality. Suggestion: A calculator may be useful for approximating key numbers. x2 − 9x + 18 > 0 (3, 6) ∪ (6, ) (−, 3) ∪ (6, ) (3, 6) (6, ) (−, 3) The missing spaces are infinity signs.. HELP Por favorrrrrr:)
second one
\[(-\infty, 3)\cup (6,\infty)\]
\[x^2 − 9x + 18 =(x-3)(x-6)\] is a parabola that opens up, it will be positive outside the zeros and negative between them. zeros are 3 and 6 which is how you get the answer|dw:1326681435175:dw|
All you have to do here is factor the quadratic. If you factor out \[x^{2} - 9x + 18\] it simplifies to \[(x - 6)(x - 3)\] You then make a number line with those as your points. |dw:1326681402200:dw| Test a number between infinity and 3. Test a number between 3 and 6. Then test a number between 6 and infinity. If your test case satisfies the inequality, its valid for that part. After testing, you get \[(-\infty,3)\cup(6,\infty)\] Hope that helps!
