Solve the inequality:

\[ 11x - 9 > 13 \]

or

\[ -4x - 4 < 8 \]

Asked by Anonymous

Answer (3)

11x-9>13 -- add 9 to both sides 11x>22 -- divide by 11 **x>2
-4x-4<8 -- add 4 to both sides -4x<12 -- switch signs (to make variable positive) 4x<-12 -- divide by 4 x<-3 **

To solve the inequality, we need to solve each inequality separately by adding or subtracting terms, and then divide by the coefficient. The solution to the inequality is x > -3 or x > 2. ;

The solutions to the inequalities are 2"> x > 2 from the first inequality and -3"> x > − 3 from the second inequality. This means any value greater than -3 or 2 satisfies at least one of the inequalities. In summary, -3 \text{ or } x > 2"> x > − 3 or x > 2 .
