Nonlinear Inequality

Module 18: Nonlinear Inequalities in One Variable

QuestionAnswer
What are the four steps for Solving a Polynomial Inequality? 1.Solve related equation. 2.Place solutions on a number line. 3.Test each region with a various testing point. 4.Write solution in interval notation.
How would you solve this equation: 5x2 - 13x - 18 < 0 First, factor the the equation using the FOIL method - (5x-18)(x+1) - and solve for x - x=18/5,-1. Then, solve for the three separate regions that form (ex. -2,1,4). Finally, write the answer in interval notation: (-1,18/5)
What are the five steps for Solving Inequalities that contain Rational Expressions? 1.Solve for values that make all denominators 0. 2.Solve related equation. 3.Separate number line into regions. 4.Choose a testing point for each region. 5.Write solution in interval notation. Do not include values that make any denominator 0.
Just by looking at the equation x+9/x-2>_0, what number(s) automatically cannot be included in the answer? (Note: >_ : My lame greater than or equal to sign) 2. The denominator cannot be 0 (which would be the difference of 2-2) so 2 is automatically not an answer.
Just by looking at the equation x+9/x-2<0, what number(s) automatically cannot be included in the answer? -9 and 2. The denominator cannot equal 0 which automatically eliminates 2. Also, because the equation cannot equal 0, -9 is eliminated.
How would you solve this equation: x-2/x+5>_0 Find the number that makes the denominator 0 (-5), then multiply the given denominator on both sides and solve for x (x=2). Test each region that formed from the equation(ex.-6,1,3). Finally, write the answer in interval notation: (-inf,-5)U[2,inf)
Solve: 4x3 + 16x2 - 9x - 36 > 0 Factor: 4x2(x+4)-9(x+4). Combine like terms:(4x2-9)(x+4). Factor: (2x+3)(2x-3)(x+4). Solve for x: x=3/2,-3/2,-4. Test and answer:(-4,-3/2)U(3/2,inf)
Solve: x+7/x-3<0 0 Denominator: 3-3. Solve for x: -7. Test and answer: (-7,3).
Solve: x4 - 9x2 + 20 <_ 0 Factor. Use radicals if you have to. x= sqrt5,-sqrt5,-2,2. Test and solve. [-sqrt5,-2]U[2,sqrt5]
Solve: x(x+6)/(x-6)(x+3)>_0 0 Denominators: 6-6,-3+3. Solve for x: 0,-6. Test and solve: (-inf,-6]U(-3,0]U(6,inf).

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.
