Question

Solve the compound inequality by identifying which two inequalities will be used to graph the solution.

Answer 1

A and E

Explanation

$17<3x+8<26$

Step 1

split the inequalities

$\begin{gathered} 17<3x+8<26 \\ 17<3x+8\text{ and }3x+8<26 \\ \end{gathered}$

Step 2

solve the inequalities

[tex]\begin{gathered} 17<3x+8\text{ and }3x+8<26 \\ 17-8<3x\text{and 3x}<26-8 \\ 9<3x\text{and 3x}<18 \\ \frac{9}{3}

then,

[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{ }3
