Solve each compound inequality, if possible. Graph the solution set (if one exists) and write it using interval notation. $$ x+2<-\frac{1}{3} x \text { and }-6 x<9 x $$
Added by Phillip L.
Step 1
First, we solve the inequality $x+2<-\frac{1}{3}x$: \begin{align*} x+2&<-\frac{1}{3}x\\ \frac{4}{3}x&<-2\\ x&<-\frac{3}{2} \end{align*} Show more…

Solving Compound Inequalities
Solve each compound inequality, if possible. Graph the solution set (if one exists) and write it using interval notation. $$ 6 x+1<5 x-3 \text { and } \frac{x}{2}+9 \leq 6 $$
Solve each inequality. Write the solution set in interval notation and graph it. $$ x^{2}-6 x+9<0 $$
