Compound Inequalities! Goals: Write compound inequalities. Model a real-life situation with a compound inequality.
Examples Write and graph each compound inequality. • x is greater than or equal to 6 and less than 12. 6 ≤ x < 12 • x is less than -4 or is greater than 6. x < -4 OR x > 6 • x is less than 8 and is greater than 7. 7 < x < 8 • x is less than 7 and is at least 0. 0 ≤ x < 7 • x is greater than 5 or is less than or equal to 3. x > 5 OR x ≤ 3
Practice Write and graph each compound inequality. • x is greater than 4 or less than 2. • x is greater than -2 and less than 5. • x is less than 6 or greater than or equal to 10. • x is at least 5 and less than 8. • x is between 2 and 8.
