Intersecting two solution intervals

Intersecting two solution intervals.

  • Add or subtract the same amount on both sides without changing the inequality sign.
  • Multiplying or dividing both sides by a negative number reverses the inequality sign.
  • Every condition must hold. Use open endpoints for < or >, and closed endpoints for ≤ or ≥.

Example 1

Find the values satisfying every inequality.

Both first conditions must hold, so take their overlap.Intersect with the final condition. Use the larger lower boundary and the smaller upper boundary.

Example 2

Find the values satisfying every inequality.

Both first conditions must hold, so take their overlap.Intersect with the final condition. Use the larger lower boundary and the smaller upper boundary.
