Question 13 Marks
Solve the equation and represent the solution set on the number line.
$-3+x \leq \frac{8 x}{3}+2 \leq \frac{14}{3}+2 x$, where $x \in I$
Answer
$-3+x \leq \frac{8 x}{3}+2 \leq \frac{14}{3}+2 x$, where $x \in I$,
$-3+x \leq \frac{8 x}{3}+2, \quad \frac{8 x}{3}+2 \leq \frac{14}{3}+2 x$
or $\frac{8 x}{3}-x \geq-3-2, \frac{8 x}{3}-2 x \leq \frac{14}{3}-2$
or $\frac{5 x}{3} \geq-5, \quad \frac{2 x}{3} \leq \frac{8}{3}$

Question 23 Marks
For each inequality, determine which of the given numbers are in the solution set:
16 - 5 x ≤ - 4; 4, -3, 10.
Answer
If x = 4, then 16 - 5x = 16 - 5 x 4 = -4
Since, -4 ≤ - 4 is true.
So, x = 4 is in the solution of 16 - 5x - 4
If x = -3, then 16 - 5x = 16 - 5 x -3 = 31
Since, 31 ≤ - 4 is false.
So, x = -3 is not in the solution of 16 - 5x ≤ - 4
If x = 10, then 16 - 5x = 16 - 5 x 10 = -34
Since, -34 ≤ -4 is true.
So, x = 10 is in the solution of 16 - 5x ≤ -4.

Question 33 Marks
For each inequality, determine which of the given numbers are in the solution set:
2x + 3 >11; -3, 4, 5, 7
Answer
If x = -3
Then 2x + 3 = 2 x (-3) + 3 = -3
Since, -3 > 11 is false.
So -3 is not in the solution of 2x + 3 > 11
If, x = 4, en 2x + 3 = 2 x 4 + 3 = 11
since 11 > 11 is false.
So 4 is not in the solution of 2x + 3 > 11
If x = 5, en 2x + 3 = 2 x 5 + 3 = 13
Since,13 > 11 is true ;
So, 5 is in the solution of 2x + 3 >11
Similarly, x = 7 is in the solution of 2x 3 > 11.

Question 53 Marks
Solve the following inequalities and graph their solution set :
$\frac{x+8}{x+1}>1$.
Answer
The inequality $\frac{x+8}{x+1}$ is equivalent to
$\frac{x+8}{x+1}-1>0 \Leftrightarrow \frac{x+8-x-1}{x+1}>0 $
$ \Rightarrow \frac{7}{x+1}$
$= 0$
$\text { but } \frac{a}{b}>0, a>0 \Leftrightarrow b>$
Thus, $\frac{7}{x+1}>0,7>0$
$\Rightarrow x + 1 > 0$ or $x > -1$

Question 63 Marks
Solve the following inequalities and graph their solution set :
$\frac{2 x-5}{x+2}<2$
Answer
The inequality $\frac{2 x-5}{x+2}<2$ is
eqivalent to $\frac{2 x-5}{x+2}-2<0 \Leftrightarrow \frac{2 x-5-2 x-4}{x+2}<0$
$\Rightarrow \frac{-9}{x+2}<0 $
$ \text { But } \frac{a}{b}<0, a<0$
$\Rightarrow b > 0$
Thus, $\frac{-9}{x+2}<0,-9<0$
$\Rightarrow x > -2 > 0$
$\Rightarrow x > -2$
The graph of this solution is $x > -2.$​​​​​​​

Question 73 Marks
Find the solution set of the following inequalities and draw the graph of their solutions sets :
$\left|\frac{x-5}{3}\right|<6$
Answer
We have $\left|\frac{x-5}{3}\right|<6$
Using prop. $| x | < a \Rightarrow - a < x < a$
$\left|\frac{x-5}{3}\right|<6$
$\Rightarrow-6<\frac{x-5}{3}<6$
$\Rightarrow -18< x -5 <18$
$\Rightarrow 5 - 18< x <18 + 5$
$\Rightarrow -13< x <23$
So $\left|\frac{x-5}{3}\right|<6$
$\Rightarrow \{x : - 13< x <23\}$

Question 83 Marks
Find the solution set of the following inequalities and draw the graph of their solutions sets :
| x - 1 | > 3
Answer
We have
| x - 1 | > 3
Using prop. | x | ≥ a ⇔ ≥ a or x ≤ - a
Then | x - 1 | > 3 ⇔ x - 1 > 3 or x - 1 < (-3)
⇒ x > 4 or x < - 2
so | x - 1 | > 3 {x : x < -2 or x > 4}
The graph of this set is

Question 93 Marks
Find the solution set of the following inequalities and draw the graph of their solutions sets :
$|x+5|<8$.
Answer
We have
$|x+5|<8$
Using prop. | x | < a ⇔ - a < x < a
⇒ -8 < x + 5 < 8
⇒ -5 -8 < x < 8 - 5
⇒ -13 < x < 3

Question 103 Marks
Solve the following inequalities in the given universal set :
5x - 3 < 6x - 2; x ∈ N
Answer
We have
5x - 3 < 6x - 2; x ∈ N
⇒ 5x - 6x < -2 + -3
⇒ -x < 1
⇒ x > -1
As x ∈ N, so x be the set of all natural numbers.
The given set can be represent on number line as x = N.

Question 113 Marks
Solve the following inequalities in the given universal set :
4x + 2 ≤ 2x - 7; x ∈ I
Answer
We have
4x + 2 ≤ 2x - 7; x ∈ I
⇒ 4x - 2x ≤ -7 -2
⇒ 2x ≤ -9
⇒ x ≤ -9/2
As x ∈ I, x can take values -5, -6, -7, ......,
so x = {-5, -6, -7, -8, .......,}
This set can be drawn on number line as x ≤ -9/2.
