Solve 3n + 11 < 17 or -3n > 12. Which is the best description of the solution set? A. n < 2 or n > -4 B. n < 2 or n < -4 C. n < 2 D. n < -4

OpenStudy (kainui):

All ordered pairs are written (x,y). Just replace the x in the inequality with the first thing and the second thing for the y. See if they produce true or false statements For example, 2>1. True, right? 2 is greater than 1.

OpenStudy (kainui):

You're right again, since x can't be both larger than 9 and less than 3. =D
