PROBLEM
Solve and graph the following inequality.
Select the correct choice below and, if necessary, fill in the answer box to complete your choice.
A. The solution set is 3
B. The solution set is 3
C. The solution set is 3
D. The solution set is
E. The solution set is .
Graph the solution. Choose the correct answer below.
A. B.
c. D.
E. O F.
STEP 1
1. We have two inequalities to solve: and .
2. We need to find the solution set that satisfies both inequalities.
3. We will graph the solution set on a number line.
STEP 2
1. Solve the first inequality.
2. Solve the second inequality.
3. Find the intersection of the solution sets.
4. Graph the solution set.
STEP 3
Solve the first inequality: .
Subtract 1 from both sides:
Divide both sides by -4, remembering to reverse the inequality sign:
STEP 4
Solve the second inequality: .
Add 4 to both sides:
Divide both sides by 7:
STEP 5
Find the intersection of the solution sets from the two inequalities.
The first inequality gives .
The second inequality gives .
Since there is no overlap between and , the solution set is empty.
SOLUTION
Graph the solution set.
Since the solution set is empty, there is nothing to graph on the number line.
The correct choice is:
E. The solution set is .
