Compound Inequalitie

Module 8

QuestionAnswer
3x+1≤-11 and 3x≤0 When you see the word and you know that you will be looking for the intersection. Simplifying these compound inequalities is the first step. x≤-4 and x≤0 Solution is (-∞,-4]
x+7≥7 and x+5≤4 Simplified x≥0 and x≤-1 This question has no solution
-4x≤-12 or 3x-25≥-10 Notice the compound inequality has the word OR in it. This means the answer will be the union of the solution sets. Also notice when dividing by a negative the inequality sign will flip. Simplified x≥3 or x≥5 Solution is [3,∞)
x<-8 or x>-5 Solution (-∞,-8) or (-5,∞)
-12<3x-12≤7 Simplify 0<x≤19/3 Solution (0,19/3]
5x≤-25 and x≤0 Notice that the the word and separates the two Simplified x≤-5 and x≤0 Solution (-∞,-5]
The intersection of two sets, A and B, is the set of all elements common to both sets. A intersect B is denoted by A n B Example: A=(x is an even number greater than 0 and less than 10) B=(3,4,5,6) The intersection of the sets is (4,6)
The union of two sets, A and B, is the set of elements that belong to either of the sets. A union B is denoted by A U B Example: A=(x is an even number greater than 0 and less tham 10) B=(3,4,5,6) The Union is (2,3,4,5,6,8)
Are you looking for the Intersection or the union in this set 12x<-4 or 5x-17>-15 Union, Notice that or seperates the two sets
Are you looking for the Intersection or the union in this set x≤0 and x≥-2 Intersection, Notice that the word and seperates the two sets

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
