Question

Solve for x: 1 < X + 3 < 4

Answer 1

Answer:

for soln 1: X < -2; for soln 2: X < 1

Step-by-step explanation:

This is two set problem involving inequality. Therefore, you have to solve for each side of the inequality to know the values of X for each sides.

1 < X + 3 < 4

Soln 1. solve for the first side of the inequality

1 < X + 3

1 - 3 < X

-2 < X

X > -2

soln 2: solve for the second side of the inequality

X +3 < 4

X < 4 - 3

X < 1

Therefore, X > -2; X < 1
