Question

Please help me with inequalities?\

2x-1>-3 and 4x plus 5>-19

I tried doing this problem, but I am lost.

Answer 1

solve each one separately if you want

2x-1 ≥ -3
2x ≥ -2
x ≥ -1

4x+5 ≥ -19
4x ≥ -24
x ≥ -6

but they are connect with AND, so ...

x ≥ -1 AND x ≥ -6

Now thing about, what numbers are both greater than or equal to -1 AND -6

Place the two values on a number line , use solid points and lines to show which numbers satisfy.

Wouln't it just be all numbers such that x ≥ -1
(notice the lines overlap from -1 to infinity)

Answer 2

I was solving for the interval notation, which I got the interval notation symbol and -1
