OpenStudy (photon336):

what does x < -4 mean?

OpenStudy (alivejeremy):

i have no idea

OpenStudy (photon336):

this means X is less than -4

OpenStudy (alivejeremy):

oh yea

OpenStudy (photon336):

it would be easier to see this on a number line like this |dw:1450877088576:dw|

OpenStudy (alivejeremy):

yea im starting to get it

OpenStudy (photon336):

alright so x < -4 means that in-order for this to be true x must be less than -4

OpenStudy (alivejeremy):

yea

OpenStudy (photon336):

looking at the number line which numbers would satisfy this and in what direction

OpenStudy (alivejeremy):

-10 is less than -4 right

OpenStudy (photon336):

yep another thing can you tell me why this would be the case? |dw:1450877315171:dw|
