    Solving and Interpreting One - Variable Compound Inequalities In this discussion, solve the assigned compound inequalities for the first initial of your last name. If your first initial is A or L, solve the following compound inequalities: • 'And' compound inequality: - 4 ≤ 3 + 7x < 24 • 'Or' compound inequality: 5 – x ≥ 7 or 8x – 3 > 29 Show your work for solving each inequality step by step. Carefully handle any negative terms in the inequalities. After solving, express the solution sets algebraically and as unions or intersections of intervals. (300 - 350 words) One - Variable Compound Inequalities In this discussion, you will be demonstrating your understanding of compound inequalities and the effect that dividing by a negative has on an inequality. Read the following instructions in order and view the example to complete this discussion: • According to the first initial of your last name, find the pair of compound inequalities assigned to you in the table below. If your first initial is Your “and” compound inequality is Your “or” compound inequality is A or L - 4 ≤ 3 + 7x < 24 5 – x ≥ 7 or 8x – 3 > 29 • Solve the compound inequalities as demonstrated in Elementary and Intermediate Algebra and the Instructor Guidance in the left navigation toolbar, being careful of how a negative x - term is handled in the solving process. Show all math work arriving at the solutions. • Show the solution sets written algebraically and as a union or intersection of intervals. Describe in words what the solution sets mean, and then display a simple line graph for each solution set as demonstrated in the Instructor Guidance in the left navigation toolbar. • Incorporate the following five math vocabulary words into your discussion. Use bold font to emphasize the words in your writing ( Do not write definitions for the words; use them appropriately in sentences describing your math work. ): o Compound inequalities o And
