Question 132 Marks

Solve the following linear inequations in $R:$
Solve: $-4x > 30,$ when

$\text{x}\in\text{R}$
$\text{x}\in\text{Z}$
$\text{x}\in\text{N}$

Answer

Now, $-4x > 30$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}<\frac{-30}{4}=\frac{-15}{2}$

If $\text{x}\in\text{R},$ then $\text{x}<\frac{-15}{2}\Rightarrow\text{x}\in\Big(-\infty,-\frac{15}{2}\Big)$
If $\text{x}\in\text{R},$ then $\text{x}<-\frac{15}{2}\Rightarrow\text{x}\in\{...,-10,-9-8\}$
$-4\text{x}>30$

$\Rightarrow-\text{x}>\frac{30}{4}$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}<-\frac{30}{4}$
As $\text{x}\in\text{R},$
so $x$ cannot be less than $1.$
$\therefore$ The solution set of the inequality $-4x > 30$ is null set $\phi$

Question 142 Marks

Solve the following linear inequations in R:
$\frac{1}{\text{x}-1}\leq2$

Answer

$\frac{1}{\text{x}-1}\leq2$
$\frac{1}{\text{x}-1}-2\leq0$
$\frac{1-2(\text{x}-1)}{\text{x}-1}\leq0$
$\frac{1-2\text{x}+2}{\text{x}-1}\leq0$
$\frac{3-2\text{x}}{\text{x}-1}\leq0$
Case 1: $3-2\text{x}\geq0$ and $\text{x}-1<0$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}\leq\frac{3}{2}$ and $\text{x}<1$
Case 2: $3-2\text{x}\leq0$ and $\text{x}-1>0$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}\geq\frac{3}{2}$ and $\text{x}>1$

Question 232 Marks

Solve the following linear inequations in $R:$
Solve: $4x - 2 < 8,$ when

$\text{x}\in\text{R}$
$\text{x}\in\text{N}$
