Answer 3

@SavannahWillett
That is incorrect. Your inequality implies that there is a number x in which both statements are true, and that is not the case. It can only be one or the other. It has to be written as @heather040200 has it with "or" between them. You can only write inequalities in the form you have if x is between two numbers, which is not the case in this problem.
