This is another what of expressing an AND inequality. You can split this into 2 parts.

-44>-2x-8 AND -2x-8≥-8

Which compound inequality is equivalent?

Two inequalities are said to be equivalent if and only if they have the same solution set. Note that this definition is similar to the definition of equivalent equations. That is, two inequalities are equivalent if all of the solutions of the first inequality are also solutions of the second inequality, and vice-versa.

What are the 2 types of compound inequalities?

There are two types of compound inequalities. They are conjunction problems and disjunction problems. These compound inequalities will sometimes appear as two simple inequalities separated by using the word AND or OR. When solving “and/or” compound inequalities, begin by solving each inequality individually.

What is an example of a compound inequality?

Compound inequalities are a type of inequality that has two or more parts. These parts can be either “or” or “and”. For example, if you have an inequality that says “x is greater than 5 and less than 10”, then x could be any number between 5 and 10.

How do you find the compound inequality?

To solve a compound inequality, first separate it into two inequalities. Determine whether the answer should be a union of sets ("or") or an intersection of sets ("and"). Then, solve both inequalities and graph.
