Question Number 8234 by sandy_suhendra last updated on 03/Oct/16

Question : figure x for  (√(x−4)) > 6−x  my answer :  (1)   x−4 > (6−x)^2         (x−5)(x−8) < 0              5<x<8    (2)   x−4 ≥ 0                x ≥ 4  so I have for x ⇒ 5<x<8  what′s wrong with this answer, please help me  because if x=9 ⇒ (√(9−4)) > 6−9 , it′s true

when you square to both sides of  inequality/equation, the result is  not necessarily completely equivalent  to the original.  Your solution 5<x<8 is actually the  solution of   x−4 > (6−x)^2  which may  not satisfy the original inequation  If x=9 ⇒ 9−4>(6−9)^2 ⇒5>9 which is false.

$$\mathrm{when}\:\mathrm{you}\:\mathrm{square}\:\mathrm{to}\:\mathrm{both}\:\mathrm{sides}\:\mathrm{of} \\ $$ $$\mathrm{inequality}/\mathrm{equation},\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{result}\:\mathrm{is} \\ $$ $$\mathrm{not}\:\mathrm{necessarily}\:\mathrm{completely}\:\mathrm{equivalent} \\ $$ $$\mathrm{to}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{original}. \\ $$ $$\mathrm{Your}\:\mathrm{solution}\:\mathrm{5}<\mathrm{x}<\mathrm{8}\:\mathrm{is}\:\mathrm{actually}\:\mathrm{the} \\ $$ $$\mathrm{solution}\:\mathrm{of}\:\:\:\mathrm{x}−\mathrm{4}\:>\:\left(\mathrm{6}−\mathrm{x}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} \:\mathrm{which}\:\mathrm{may} \\ $$ $$\mathrm{not}\:\mathrm{satisfy}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{original}\:\mathrm{inequation} \\ $$ $$\mathrm{If}\:\mathrm{x}=\mathrm{9}\:\Rightarrow\:\mathrm{9}−\mathrm{4}>\left(\mathrm{6}−\mathrm{9}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} \Rightarrow\mathrm{5}>\mathrm{9}\:\mathrm{which}\:\mathrm{is}\:\mathrm{false}. \\ $$

Let u=(√(x−4))≥0 for x≥4⇒x=u^2 +4  ∴ u>6−u^2 −4  u^2 +u−2>0  (u+2)(u−1)>0  ⇒u>1 or u<−2  But, u≥0⇒u<−2 is not possible.  ∴ u>1⇒(√(x−4))>1⇒x−4>1⇒x>5

$$\mathrm{Let}\:\mathrm{u}=\sqrt{\mathrm{x}−\mathrm{4}}\geqslant\mathrm{0}\:\mathrm{for}\:\mathrm{x}\geqslant\mathrm{4}\Rightarrow\mathrm{x}=\mathrm{u}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{4} \\ $$ $$\therefore\:\mathrm{u}>\mathrm{6}−\mathrm{u}^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{4} \\ $$ $$\mathrm{u}^{\mathrm{2}} +\mathrm{u}−\mathrm{2}>\mathrm{0} \\ $$ $$\left(\mathrm{u}+\mathrm{2}\right)\left(\mathrm{u}−\mathrm{1}\right)>\mathrm{0} \\ $$ $$\Rightarrow\mathrm{u}>\mathrm{1}\:\mathrm{or}\:\mathrm{u}<−\mathrm{2} \\ $$ $$\mathrm{But},\:\mathrm{u}\geqslant\mathrm{0}\Rightarrow\mathrm{u}<−\mathrm{2}\:\mathrm{is}\:\mathrm{not}\:\mathrm{possible}. \\ $$ $$\therefore\:\mathrm{u}>\mathrm{1}\Rightarrow\sqrt{\mathrm{x}−\mathrm{4}}>\mathrm{1}\Rightarrow\mathrm{x}−\mathrm{4}>\mathrm{1}\Rightarrow\mathrm{x}>\mathrm{5} \\ $$

i think....  X^2 <Y^2   ⇔∣X∣<∣Y∣  your answer  x−4>(6−x)^2  means  ⇔(√(x−4))>∣6−x∣  ⇔+(√(x−4))>6−x>−(√(x−4))  is not equal to ′Question′    you should ....  (i)if  6−x≥0  (6≥x)  (√(x−4))>6−x≥0  ⇔x−4>(6−x)^2   ⇔0>x^2 −13x+40  ⇔5<x<8  so  5<x≤6    (ii)if  6−x≤0 (6≤x)  (√(x−4)) ≥0≥6−x  ⇔x:all of the real  so  6≤x    (i),(ii)⇒  5<x
