Arcadia Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 (edited) 0 <2x-5<9 5 < 2x < 14 2.5 < x < 7 so it would be an open dot at 2.5 and 7 with a line connecting the dots on a number line. ETA: I don't have the solutions manual. I have Larson Algebra I 2001 edition. Edited October 24, 2012 by Arcadia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swimmermom3 Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 Sent you a pm as I am not sure I can face public humiliation today. Wiring a new router and trouble shooting seems to have fried my brain.:tongue_smilie: ETA: Phew! Same as Arcadia. What answer did the manual give you?

LNC Posted October 24, 2012 Author Share Posted October 24, 2012 Sorry everyone and thanks for answering. I tried to delete my post but the board froze. She had just done several problems in a row where she divided by a negative number and switched around the greater than to less than signs. So, when she divided the positive number she switched the signs and I didn't catch that she didn't actually need to bc it was positive until right after I posted... :001_huh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
