Q. Solve for c.−16<c−14<1Write your answer as a compound inequality with integers.Choices:(A)c<−2 or c≥15(B)−2<c<15(C)−2<c≤15(D)c<−2 or c>15
Isolate c in compound inequality: First, we will isolate c in the compound inequality by adding 14 to all three parts of the inequality.−16<c−14<1−16+14<c−14+14<1+14−2<c<15
Determine range for c: Now that we have isolated c, we can see that c must be greater than −2 and less than 15. This is already in the form of a compound inequality with integers.
Compare with given choices: We compare our result with the given choices to find the correct one. Our result is −2<c<15, which matches choice (B).
