Question

Choose the compound inequality that is equivalent to: 5 < x < 10

Question 8 options:


x < 5 AND x < 10


x < 5 OR x < 10


x > 5 AND x < 10


x > 5 OR x < 10

Answer 1

5 < x < 10 means that x is between the limits 5 and 10, so x has to be greater than 5 and, at the same time, smaller than 10.

So, the answer is x > 5 and x < 10.
