1. Problem Description
We need to solve the following inequality:
2. Solution Steps
Let . The inequality becomes:
Combine the fractions:
The critical points are , , and . Since , we can ignore .
We consider the intervals , , and . However, since , we only need to check the intervals , and .
The interval is an empty set.
So, we have intervals and .
Check the sign of on the intervals and :
If , let . Then . This is true. Also, we have and since we want , then .
Since , we need or . Since , is valid.
If , the expression is undefined.
If , let . Then .
If , .
So, we have or . Since for all real x.
or
or
, ,
Then or .
So the solution to the inequality is .
is valid because if , then is undefined. Thus, we have .
Thus, .
, so , and thus .
Or
, but absolute value cannot be negative.
