OpenStudy (anonymous):

I realy didnt know what do u want ???:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

help from someone who knows how to do this... :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

heh !

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can we say O=Q ??:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Why !

OpenStudy (anonymous):

>:| rlly?...i actually need help. joking aside.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No ! P1=O P2=Q I was fall ... Can we say that ?:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont think so...

hero (hero):

Hi, @HendersonNeedsYurHelp, can you please re-post the full original picture?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i can try. but its basically the same as what i drew.

hero (hero):

Yes, I know, but I have to be sure.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ive tried this one already and got it wrong so,.. B is not one of my answers.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Hero ?

hero (hero):

Hang on..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

k :)

hero (hero):

I've never seen a question like this before, but I'm going to try to figure it out. That said, I think we can safely eliminate A and C.

hero (hero):

Because x cannot be negative.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hahaha..xD thx. and i know!! its super hard. :(

hero (hero):

What country are you from? That will help.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the answers D! :D because i got B wrong and you say its not A or C. so all thats left is D! :D China!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

jk. America. :P

hero (hero):

Try it and see what happens.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok. lol ill get back to you with da results. B)

hero (hero):

Can you change your answer after picking?

hero (hero):

Or rather...do you have the ability to change your answer later? I'm still checking.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nope

hero (hero):

RQ < OR 2x + 3 < 9 2x < 6 x < 6/2 x < 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A.B.C are options o: ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that was for another problem i confused this one with :/ theyre almost identical. except shape

hero (hero):

lol, I'm pretty sure B is correct. The only reason I didn't pick it is because I thought you already picked it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

xD sorry! thanks for spending so much time on this problem. :|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

heh !

hero (hero):

Actually, C is correct. I will explain

hero (hero):

The length RQ has to be greater than zero so 2x + 3 > 0

hero (hero):

and x > -3/2 after solving

hero (hero):

Also we know 2x + 3 < 9

hero (hero):

solving that gets you x < 3

hero (hero):

So -3/2 < x < 3 is correct. Option C @HendersonNeedsYurHelp
