Math Problem Statement
7k + 1 <= 8 or -7 < - 10
Solution
To solve the compound inequality or , we need to analyze each part of the inequality separately.
1. Solving :
Subtract 1 from both sides: Divide both sides by 7:
2. Analyzing :
This inequality states is less than . However, is greater than , so this inequality is false.
Conclusion:
Since the second part is false, the solution relies solely on the first part of the inequality. The final solution is:
