Which represents the compound inequality x < -2 or x ≥ 3 using interval notation? A. x e(-∞,-2) U [3,∞) B. x e(-∞,-2) n[3,∞) c. x e(-2,3] d.x e(-∞,-2] Need help i dont understand this one at all.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x< -2 so x can go from -infinity to -2 \[also , x \ge 3 , \] so x can go from \[[ 3 , \infty)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so just put union U in the centre as both can be the results

OpenStudy (anonymous):

tell me the answer :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which is the solution set of the compound inequality? -4 < a + 2 < 10 http://prntscr.com/2yxwyj <--- list of answers need help on one more after this if you can.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no problemo

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay , so , first -4 < a + 2 subtract 2 from both sides -4 -2 < a +2 -2 -6 < a then the second one a + 2 < 10 solve similarly and tell me what u get

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so i subtract 2 from both sides?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yep , the aim is to get 'a' alone on one side

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so then its a<10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no , from both sides , remember ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

u cant subtract just on one side

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so then its a<8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

exactly

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now put union U

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay and then this one http://prntscr.com/2yxys1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

use what i taught you , and tell me what u get

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ill check it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

B?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

B. x e(-∞,-2) n[3,∞)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ya

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@hazem-wardat , dont just give the answer , we have to help them understand it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay thank you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its no use if they dont master it on their own , u wont be there during the exam

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ur welcomr :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for which one?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok am sorry but B. x e(-∞,-2) n[3,∞) is the right answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ur third answer is B , as u rightly chose
