9+8<-3 and -2q < 28 what is the solution set of the inequality
null
what
i suck at math
how can 17<-3
thus it must be a null set
what's a null set
it doesn't include any element ucan consider it a dustbin
A. {} B. { q:-11<q and q>-14} C. {q:q<-14} D. {q:-14<q<-11} E. None of these
thats the answer choices
a
is your question posted correctly? or did you make a typo?
it's posted correct y
ok, then when is: 9+8 < -3 ?
thats why i said it is anull set
you saying what the answer is, and the asker being able to work it out in their own understanding are 2 different things.
so how can i figure it out
by determining when the given statements are true. one of the given statements is: 9+8 < -3 can this be true?
i know the answer is not A. But it's true
hmm, can you tell me why you believe the answer is not A ?
since 9+8<-3 is never less possible we cant get a solution of this equation thus the answer is a null set which means that no solution exists and is represnted by {} or \[\emptyset \]
you can think of the brackets as representing a container; a box that holds all the possible answers. option A is simply telling us that the box is empty and that there are no solutions available.
if you have not made a typo in posting the question, and since +8 < -3 is never true; there are no solutions that we can put in the box; and it remains empty.
... 9+8 that is :)
i don't know then this is what my extra credit says
17
17 is never less than -3. 9+8<-3 AND -2q < 28 fasle true ; since one of the parts is always false then the statement as a whole is false and there are no solutions that can make it true.
therefore, the empty set should be the correct choice for an enswer
it's D
if its D, then there has to be a typo error in the question itself.
good luck tho ;)
okay
if it has been q+8<-3 ; then we could have gotten q < -11 so check to make sure that "9" wasnt meant to be a "q" instead
-7<4k+5<33
great work @amistre64
