Question

What integer values satisfy both inequalities? − 2 < x < 3 − 2 ≤ x < 2

Answer 1

Given:

The inequalities are:

$-2$

$-2\leq x$

To find:

The integer values that satisfy both inequalities.

Solution:

We have,

$-2$

$-2\leq x$

For $-2$, the possible integer values are

$x=-1,0,1,2$          ...(i)

For $-2\leq x$, the possible integer values are

$x=-2,-1,0,1$        ...(ii)

The common values of x in (i) and (ii) are

$x=-1,0,1$

Therefore, the integer values -1, 0 and 1 satisfy both inequalities.
