Solve the polynomial inequality and express the solution set in interval notation: x^2-2x>10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you find the roots of x^2-2x-10=0 ? using the quadratic formula?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ghass1978 Yes. The roots are \[pm 2sqrt{11}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

- and + 2 sqrt of 11

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lets name the roots x1 and x2 the sign of ax^2+bx+c is the same as a outside the roots,i.e x belongs ]-infinity;x1[ u ]x2;+infinity[

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(-infinity, x1] U [x2, +infinity) is this what you mean?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

It's actually (-infinity, x1) U (x2, +infinity) because you're not including the roots in your solution set

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

since there isn't a line under the > sign
