Solving Compound Inequalities Effectively

What is a compound inequality?

• An inequality that cannot be graphed

• An inequality with only one variable

• An inequality that combines two or more inequalities using 'and' or 'or'

• An equation with two variables

How do 'or' inequalities typically graph?

• They graph apart

• They graph together

• They graph as a single line

• They do not graph
