Inequality question
I'll pick up with (X-3)(X-1)<0 For this statement to be true, one of the terms has to be negative, the other has to be positive. So, either of the following should be correct: X-3>0 & X-1<0 OR X-3<0 & X-1>0 (i)By statement 1, X>3 AND X<1. Clearly, there is no possible value of X, which can s...
