4. A box for relief goods needs to have a volume of 125 cubic meters. If the box has a square base, what are the possible measurements of the edge of the base if the height of the box is greater than the base edge?

Solution and answer:


solve the rational inequality using these steps:

These are the steps to follow in solving rational inequality:
1. Rewrite the inequality such that the left-hand side is written as a single rational expression and the Right-hand side becomes zero.
2. Factor the numerator and the denominator.
3. Find the critical values of the rational expression on the left-hand side of the inequality. 4. Use the critical values as bounds to divide the set of real numbers into intervals.
5. Construct a table of signs for the rational inequality.
6. Fill out the entries of the table.
7. Determine the sign of the entire rational expression for each interval.
8. Determine the solution set by forming the union of all intervals that satisfy the inequality.
