1.6 Solving Compound Inequalities
Understanding that conjunctive inequalities take intersections of
intervals and disjunctive inequalities take unions of intervals

Part 1: First Box of the Worksheet
The point of this exercise is that you can solve the conjunctive compound inequality in two different ways:
1. Solving algebraically by performing operations on all 3 parts of the compound inequality.
2. Solve each simple inequality separately and then taking the intersection of the two intervals.

The first way is easier for solving conjunctive inequalities. However, disjunctive inequalities can only be solved by solving each simple inequality separately and then taking their union.
Part 2: Second Box of the Worksheet
Part 2 of the presentation will go over using unions to solve disjunctive compound inequalities:

Solve 0163 xORx
The ‘or’ means that either the left inequality needs to be true OR the right inequality needs to be true.
Solve 0163 xORx
The ‘or’ means that either the left inequality needs to be true OR the right inequality needs to be true.
Thus, we want all the points that make the left inequality true together with all the points that make the right inequality true – we take the union of the two intervals.
The union is:
Solve 0163 xORx
The ‘or’ means that either the left inequality needs to be true OR the right inequality needs to be true.
Thus, we want all the points that make the left inequality true together with all the points that make the right inequality true – we take the union of the two intervals.
The union is:

The ‘or’ means that either the left inequality needs to be true OR the right inequality needs to be true.
Thus, we want all the points that make the left inequality true together with all the points that make the right inequality true – we take the union of the two intervals.
The union is:
In interval notation this is: (-∞,2](1, ∞).
