Question

Solve the combined inequality and select the answer that best describes the graph of the solution.

2x + 8 > 10 and 3x – 3 < 12

Open dot at -1, closed dot at 4, and shaded between the numbers

Closed dot at -1 and 5, shaded between the numbers

Closed dot at 1, open dot at 5, and shaded between the numbers

None of the above

Answer 1

solving both inequalities you get the solution set
x<1 and x<5

Answer 2

the graph would be an open dot at 1 and open dot at 5 and shaded between the numbers

that is not there so none of the above would be my choice

Answer 3

the one that best describes from these options should be open at 1 and closed at 4 i.e. (1,4]...
as it is a subset to the actual answer which is (1,5)...

Answer 4

normally wouldn't you flip the greater than and less than or equal to signs?

Answer 5

@Ledah - i don't understand ur question...

Answer 6

nevermind...

Answer 7

you understood how we got the actual solution interval for this question right ?

Answer 8

i disagree with xavier123's interpretation of "best describes"
and answer choice
but
who knows
if you have the answer please let us know

Answer 9

yeah, that would actually help... :)
