Question

Solve the compound inequality. Then complete the statement below about the solution set. 
x - 5 < 12 or 6x ≤ 12

Solution set: {x| x __ _____}

unklerhaukus · Answer

what did you get when you solved
x - 5 < 12 ?

anonymous · Answer

x<17

anonymous · Answer

Yes you are right...

anonymous · Answer

$6x \le 12$

anonymous · Answer

Divide by 6 both the sides and find x..

anonymous · Answer

@AudrianaS interested or not???

anonymous · Answer

Hi Uncle Rocks how are you??

anonymous · Answer

Yeah sorry it took so long. I got it now! Thank you so much you both! :)

anonymous · Answer

Welcome..

easy one

unklerhaukus · Answer

what was your solution to the Compound Inequality @AudrianaS ?
I am quite well thanks @waterineyes and you/?

anonymous · Answer

I am also fine uncle rocks... thanks...

anonymous · Answer

I got {x|x<17} I tried it multiple times and for some reason could not figure it out. I guess I just needed someone to explain it to me. Thanks again!

unklerhaukus · Answer

that is the correct  solution to the First inequality, ,

anonymous · Answer

You did not find the second solution..

unklerhaukus · Answer

but the question is asking for the solution to the Compound inequality , which involves both the the solutions to both inequalities

anonymous · Answer

See that is what was confusing me, but it said that the answer is correct.

unklerhaukus · Answer

find the solution to the second inequality 
6x ≤ 12

anonymous · Answer

oh its $$x \le 2$$

unklerhaukus · Answer

good,

unklerhaukus · Answer

Now to find the solution to the Compound Inequality 
$x - 5 < 12$    or      $6x ≤ 12$

x must be

$x<17$           or         $ x≤2$,
