Sagot :

Answer:

x > 2, x < -8

Interval notation:

( -infinity, -8) U (2, infinity)

Step-by-step explanation:

x(x+6) > 16

distribute x into x+6, multiply

x^2 + 6x > 16

bring 16 to left side, subtract

x^2 + 6x - 16 > 0

factors of -16 that add to +6 is -2 and +8

(x - 2)(x + 8) > 0

solve for x:

x < -8,  x > 2

Interval notation:

( -infinity, -8) U (2, infinity)
