6
Consider the inequality: 2x-10 \lt 0.
a
Solve the equation 2x-10 = 0 for x.
b
Construct a sign diagram for the function f(x)=2x-10.
c
Hence, solve the inequality.
7
Consider the inequality: 3x^2-75 \lt 0.
a
Solve the equation 3x^2-75 = 0 for x.
b
Construct a sign diagram for the function f(x)=3x^2-75.
c
Hence, solve the inequality.
