Which of the following is the correct graph of the compound inequality [tex]4p + 1 \ \textgreater \ -7[/tex] or [tex]6p + 3 \ \textless \ 33[/tex]?

A.
B.
C.
D.



Answer :

Let's solve the given compound inequality step-by-step.

### Inequality 1: [tex]\( 4p + 1 > -7 \)[/tex]

1. Subtract 1 from both sides:
[tex]\[ 4p + 1 - 1 > -7 - 1 \][/tex]
This simplifies to:
[tex]\[ 4p > -8 \][/tex]

2. Divide by 4:
[tex]\[ \frac{4p}{4} > \frac{-8}{4} \][/tex]
This simplifies to:
[tex]\[ p > -2 \][/tex]

So the solution for the first inequality is:
[tex]\[ p > -2 \][/tex]

### Inequality 2: [tex]\( 6p + 3 < 33 \)[/tex]

1. Subtract 3 from both sides:
[tex]\[ 6p + 3 - 3 < 33 - 3 \][/tex]
This simplifies to:
[tex]\[ 6p < 30 \][/tex]

2. Divide by 6:
[tex]\[ \frac{6p}{6} < \frac{30}{6} \][/tex]
This simplifies to:
[tex]\[ p < 5 \][/tex]

So the solution for the second inequality is:
[tex]\[ p < 5 \][/tex]

### Combine the Solutions Using OR

We now need to find the union of the two solutions [tex]\( p > -2 \)[/tex] or [tex]\( p < 5 \)[/tex].

When combining these solutions with OR, we see that the resulting solution set covers all real numbers because every number [tex]\( p \)[/tex] satisfies at least one of the inequalities [tex]\( p > -2 \)[/tex] or [tex]\( p < 5 \)[/tex]. This compound inequality doesn't exclude any real number because the union of these two intervals [tex]\((-2, \infty) \cup (-\infty, 5)\)[/tex] actually covers the entire real line.

Thus, the correct graph of the compound inequality [tex]\( 4 p + 1 > -7 \)[/tex] or [tex]\( 6 p + 3 < 33 \)[/tex] would be the entire number line.

The graph would look like this:
[tex]\[ \text{<----|====================================|---->} \text{ -2 5 } \][/tex]

Each point on the number line satisfies the compound inequality.
