Which graph shows the solution set of the compound inequality 1.5x-1>6.5 or 7x+3<-25

ad-work [718]

For this case we have the following inequations:
1.5x-1> 6.5
7x + 3 <-25
Clearing x from each one we have:
For 1.5x-1> 6.5:
1.5x> 6.5 + 1
1.5x> 7.5
x> 7.5 / 1.5
x> 5
For 7x + 3 <-25:
7x <-25-3
7x <-28
x <-28/7
x <-4
The solution set is:
(inf, -4) U (5, inf)
