When working with a compound inequality, think intersection.The intersection of two sets is the set of elements that are common to both sets. The symbol is used to represent intersection.
Consider how two streets come together to demonstrate this concept.The intersection of the two streets is the portion of pavement that is common to both.Harmony StreetShields Street
Example 1Find the intersection of the two inequalities:
andWe want to find the values of x that are common to both inequalities.A graph will assist in accomplishing this.
