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.

How to do inequality?

It's the same thing as solving an equation, the minor difference is to change the inequality sign when the numbers change signs(i.e negative to positive to negative).


What is the similarities of solving equations and inequalities?

You solve an inequality in exactly the same was as you solve an equation, by doing the same thing to both sides. The only difference is if you multiply/divide by a negative number, when you have to turn the inequality around.


What is the difference between a compound inequality using the word and and compound inequality using the word or?

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&lt;x+3&lt;7 example of "or" . 4&lt;d or m&lt;1


How can you tell what kind of compound inequality an absolute value inequality will represent?

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 &lt; or &acirc;&permil;&curren;, the compound inequality is a double inequality of the form c &lt; X &lt; d (or &acirc;&permil;&curren;), and if the comparison is &gt; or &acirc;&permil;&yen;, the compound inequality is a disjoint inequality of the form X &lt; c or X &gt; d (or including the equals). In both cases, c = b - a, d = b + a (&gt;c)

What is compound inequality in math?

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 &gt; -1 and x &lt; 2 can also be written as: -1 &lt; x &lt; 2 (I also took this example from Math Planet.) There is no such shortcut for the "or" case.
