Understanding Compound Inequalities

The video tutorial explains how to solve a compound inequality and express the solution using interval notation. It begins by defining compound inequalities and proceeds to solve the given inequalities step-by-step. The tutorial includes graphing the solution intervals and concludes with expressing the solution in interval notation, highlighting the importance of understanding both graphical and algebraic representations.

What is a compound inequality?

• An equation with two variables

• Two or more inequalities connected by 'and' or 'or'

• A single inequality with no conditions

• An equation with one variable

How can the given compound inequality be read?

• Only from right to left

• Only from left to right

• From both left to right and right to left

• It cannot be read in any direction
