Question

What is the solution set of the compound inequality below?

x+2>3OR -2x>12

Select two representations of the correct answer.

Answer 1

Solve each part:

x + 2 > 3 => x > 1
-2x > 12 => x < -6 (divide by -2 and flip the inequality)

Union (OR): x < -6 or x > 1.

Two representations:
- Inequality form: x < -6 or x > 1
- Interval notation: (-∞, -6) ∪ (1, ∞)
