Q. Solve for x.5x−29>−34 OR 2x+31<29Choose 1 answer:(A) x<−1 or x>−1(B) x<−1(C) x>−1(D) There are no solutions(E) All values of x are solutions
Solve first inequality: Solve the first inequality 5x−29>−34.Add 29 to both sides of the inequality to isolate the term with x.5x−29+29>−34+295x>−5Now, divide both sides by 5 to solve for x.55x>5−5x>−1
Isolate term with x: Solve the second inequality 2x+31<29. Subtract 31 from both sides of the inequality to isolate the term with x. 2x+31−31<29−31 2x<−2 Now, divide both sides by 2 to solve for x. 22x<2−2 x<−1
Divide both sides by 5: Combine the solutions of both inequalities.The first inequality gives us x>−1.The second inequality gives us x<−1.Since these are two separate conditions connected by an "OR", the solution set includes all x that satisfy either condition.Therefore, the solution set is x<−1 OR x>−1.
