Q. Solve each compound inequality. 3≤2x−1≤11UploadChoose a File
Split and Solve First Inequality: First, we need to solve the compound inequality 3≤2x−1≤11 by splitting it into two separate inequalities and solving each one.The first inequality is 3≤2x−1.We will add 1 to both sides of the inequality to isolate the term with the variable x.3+1≤2x−1+14≤2x
Solve for x: Now, we divide both sides of the inequality by 2 to solve for x.24≤22x2≤x
Split and Solve Second Inequality: The second part of the compound inequality is 2x−1≤11. We will add 1 to both sides of this inequality as well. 2x−1+1≤11+12x≤12
Solve for x: We divide both sides of this inequality by 2 to solve for x.22x≤212x≤6
Combine and Find Solution Set: Now we combine the results from both inequalities to find the solution set for the compound inequality.From the first part, we have x≥2, and from the second part, we have x≤6.Therefore, the solution set is all x values between 2 and 6, inclusive.
