x^2-9
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
I factored the top to be
(x+2) (x+1)
______________ < 0
(x-3)(x+3)
Couldnt cancel anything out, So now i don't know what to do. I missed this lesson in class and i don't really understand wtf I am supposed to do. Inequalities usually have 1-3 cases in which we solve for x and create a therefore statement in, however, how am i supposed to solve this?
In the book it just shows intervals, but is it possible to solve through 3 cases as wel? ie)
x < -3 , x > 3 (since those are the vertical asymptotes)
