Solve the inequality.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Without seeing the actual inequality, we cannot solve it but the answer choices provide us with possible intervals for x. 
Option A suggests that x is either less than 1 or greater than 5, which are two disjoint intervals. 
Option B suggests that x is between 1 and 5, which means it cannot be less than 1 or greater than 5. 
Option C suggests that x is less than -3 (disjoint with options A and B) or greater than 5 (overlapping with option A). 
Option D suggests that x is either less than -3, or between -3 and 1, or greater than 5. 
Since option D includes all the cases covered by the other options, and is the only one that includes -3 to 1, it is the best choice.
