It mean why are u even lookin this up....
toast! "DING"
A compound inequality would be a combination of two or more inequalities, combined with AND or with OR. This can be implied, as in 2 < x < 5, which means: 2 < x AND x < 5.
It means that both inequalities must be satisfied.
Any compound inequality, in one variable, can be graphed on the number line.
The word "and" means both statements must be true. The word "or" means that at least one of the statements must be true.
The difference between them is that when solving an "and" inequality you are comparing two inequalities and when you are solving an "or" inequality you dont compare, you only use one inequality example of "and" . 2<x+3<7 example of "or" . 4<d or m<1
If the absolute value inequality is of the form where the absolute value of the difference between a variable (X) and some constant (a) is compared to another constant (b) eg |X - a| compared with b, then if the comparison is < or ≤, the compound inequality is a double inequality of the form c < X < d (or ≤), and if the comparison is > or ≥, the compound inequality is a disjoint inequality of the form X < c or X > d (or including the equals). In both cases, c = b - a, d = b + a (>c)
According to the site Math Planet, 'A compound inequality contains at least two inequalities that are separated by either "and" or "or".' In the case of "and", a compound inequality such as x > -1 and x < 2 can also be written as: -1 < x < 2 (I also took this example from Math Planet.) There is no such shortcut for the "or" case.
compound inequality :)
This compound inequality cannot be solved.
Compound inequalities is when there is two inequality signs. You will regularly graph compound inequalities on a number line.
Good question.Think about lxl > 3: x can be >3 or goes with or. < goes with and.
