Steps in solving
quadratic
inequality
Writethe inequality as a quadratic equation
in standard form. Then solve for .
Represent the solutions as points on a
number line. These points divide the
number line into regions or intervals.
Choose a test point in each region, and
substitute the test point to the original
inequality. If it is true, then the region
belongs to the solution set, then if it is
false it is not part of the solution set.

1. Solve theinequality
ππ
βπ πβπ=π
Write the inequality as
a quadratic equation
in standard form.
Then solve for .
(π+π)(πβπ)=π
