Question
Solve the inequality
Solve the inequality by testing the values in the interval
Solve for c
c<320
Alternative Form
c∈(−∞,320)
Evaluate
20>c3
Move the expression to the left side
20−c3>0
Rewrite the expression
20−c3=0
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
−c3=0−20
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−c3=−20
Change the signs on both sides of the equation
c3=20
Take the 3-th root on both sides of the equation
3c3=320
Calculate
c=320
Determine the test intervals using the critical values
c<320c>320
Choose a value form each interval
c1=2c2=4
To determine if c<320 is the solution to the inequality,test if the chosen value c=2 satisfies the initial inequality
