The correct Answer is:
To solve the inequality \(\frac{x+3}{x-2} > 0\), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the critical points The critical points occur when the numerator and denominator are equal to zero. 1. **Numerator:** \(x + 3 = 0 \Rightarrow x = -3\) 2. **Denominator:** \(x - 2 = 0 \Rightarrow x = 2\) These points divide the number line into intervals. ### Step 2: Determine the intervals The critical points divide the real number line into three intervals: 1. \((-∞, -3)\) 2. \((-3, 2)\) 3. \((2, ∞)\) ### Step 3: Test each interval We will test a point from each interval to see if the inequality holds. 1. **Interval \((-∞, -3)\)**: Choose \(x = -4\) \[ \frac{-4 + 3}{-4 - 2} = \frac{-1}{-6} = \frac{1}{6} > 0 \quad \text{(True)} \] 2. **Interval \((-3, 2)\)**: Choose \(x = 0\) \[ \frac{0 + 3}{0 - 2} = \frac{3}{-2} = -\frac{3}{2} < 0 \quad \text{(False)} \] 3. **Interval \((2, ∞)\)**: Choose \(x = 3\) \[ \frac{3 + 3}{3 - 2} = \frac{6}{1} = 6 > 0 \quad \text{(True)} \] ### Step 4: Combine the results From our tests, we find that the inequality \(\frac{x+3}{x-2} > 0\) holds true for the intervals: - \((-∞, -3)\) - \((2, ∞)\) ### Step 5: Write the solution The solution in interval notation is: \[ x \in (-∞, -3) \cup (2, ∞) \] ### Step 6: Represent the solution on a number line On a number line, we represent the solution as follows: - Draw an open circle at \(-3\) and shade to the left (indicating all numbers less than \(-3\)). - Draw an open circle at \(2\) and shade to the right (indicating all numbers greater than \(2\)). ### Final Answer The solution to the inequality \(\frac{x+3}{x-2} > 0\) is: \[ x \in (-∞, -3) \cup (2, ∞) \] ---
