Solve the inequality \(\displaystyle 9 \leq - 4 x - 9 < 22\). Write the solution in interval notation.


Since this is a three part inequality we must do the same thing to all three parts.Adding 9 to all three parts gives \(\displaystyle 0 \leq - 4 x - 9 < 13 \). Dividing off the coefficient of \(\displaystyle x\) gives and reversing all of the inequalies \(\displaystyle 0 \geq x > - \frac{13}{4}\)The solution is \(\displaystyle \big(- \frac{13}{4},0\big]\)
