Solve the inequality LaTeX:  \displaystyle \frac{4}{x^{2} - 9}<\frac{3}{x^{2} + 11 x + 24}

Getting zero on one side and factoring gives LaTeX:  \displaystyle - \frac{3}{\left(x + 3\right) \left(x + 8\right)} + \frac{4}{\left(x - 3\right) \left(x + 3\right)}< 0 . This gives the least common denominator as LaTeX:  \displaystyle \left(x - 3\right) \left(x + 3\right) \left(x + 8\right) . Building each fraction to get the common denominator gives LaTeX:  \displaystyle \frac{4 x + 32 - (3 x - 9)}{\left(x - 3\right) \left(x + 3\right) \left(x + 8\right)} < 0 . Simplifying gives LaTeX:  \displaystyle \frac{x + 41}{\left(x - 3\right) \left(x + 3\right) \left(x + 8\right)}<0 . The inequality can change signs at the zeros of the numerator, LaTeX:  \displaystyle \left\{-41\right\} , or the zeros of the denominator LaTeX:  \displaystyle \left\{-8, -3, 3\right\} . Making a sign chart gives: This gives the solution LaTeX:  \displaystyle \left(-41, -8\right) \cup \left(-3, 3\right)
