Compound Inequalities Goal: Write, solve and graph compound inequalities. Prepare to have your mind blown!!
What are Compound Inequalities? • Compound Inequalities: two inequalities connected by andor or. Example: x is less than five and greater than -10 or -10 < x < 5
THE “OR” STORY • LETS NOW SUPPOSE THAT YOU HAD EXHIBITED SUCH GOOD BEHAVIOR THAT YOUR MOM TOLD YOU THAT SHE WOULD GO TO WALMART OR K-MART TO TRY TO FIND YOU A NEW GAME THAT YOU HAVE BEEN WANTING FOR MONTHS. • …SHE LATER TOLD YOU THAT SHE WENT TO K MART AND THEY DIDN’T HAVE IT, SORRY! • DID SHE KEEP HER PROMISE?
THE “AND” STORY • SUPPOSE THAT YOU HAD EXHIBITED SUCH GOOD BEHAVIOR THAT YOUR MOM TOLD YOU THAT SHE WOULD GO TO WALMART AND K-MART TO TRY TO FIND YOU A NEW GAME THAT YOU HAVE BEEN WANTING FOR MONTHS. • …SHE LATER TOLD YOU THAT SHE WENT TO K MART AND THEY DIDN’T HAVE IT, SORRY! • DID SHE KEEP HER PROMISE?
Writing Compound Inequalities From Words • x is greater than 2 and less than or equal to 10 • x is less than -7 or greater than 3
Writing Compound Inequalities (AND) • Let’s Break it Down
Real Life Compound Inequalities Write and inequality to describe the Alpine meadow region. (use y is represent region)
Real Life Compound Inequalities Write and inequality to describe the Timber Region. (use y is represent region)
Graphing Compound Inequalities • AND connect together (one line segment) • OR two separate lines
Let’s Try (AND Ex. 1) -2 < x < 5 • Break it up: x > -2 AND x < 5
Let’s Try (AND Ex. 2) -9 ≤ x < -1
Let’s Try (AND Ex. 3) -5 ≤ x ≤ 4
Let’s Try (OR Ex. 1) x < -6 or x > 4 • Break it up: x < -6 OR x > 4
Let’s Try (OR Ex. 2) x ≤ -1 or x > 3
Let’s Try (OR Ex. 3) x < -8 or x ≥ 8
Questions?! HOMEWORK: Graphing Compound Inequalities Worksheet
Solving a Compound Inequality with OR • Solve both inequalities separately.
Solving a Compound Inequality with OR 3x + 1 < 4 or 2x – 5 > 7
Solving a Compound Inequality with OR – Ex. 2 • Solve both inequalities separately. 2x + 3 < -1 or 3x – 5 > -2
Solving a Compound Inequality with OR – Ex. 3 2x - 1 < -7 or 7x – 7 > 7
Solving Compound Inequalities with AND • Do all steps to all parts of inequality. -2 ≤ 3x – 8 ≤ 10
Solving Compound Inequalities with AND – Ex. 2 7 < x + 4 < 8
Solving Compound Inequalities with AND – Ex. 3 -15 < 2x - 5 < 9
Multiplying or Dividing by a Negative • When multiplying or dividing a compound inequality by a negative you MUST SWITCH BOTH SIGNS!!!!
Example 1 -2 < -3x – 2 < 1
Example 2 -8 < -6x – 2 < 16
