Solve LaTeX:  \displaystyle x^{2} + 20\geq - 11 x - 4

Getting zero on the right hand side and factoring gives LaTeX:  \displaystyle x^{2} + 11 x + 24=0\iff \left(x + 3\right) \left(x + 8\right)=0 . This gives the critical numbers as LaTeX:  \displaystyle x=-3 and LaTeX:  \displaystyle x=-8 .

Checking the sign in each region gives the solution LaTeX:  \displaystyle (-\infty, -8 ] \cup [ -3 ,\infty) .
