Question:
Solve each of the following system of equations in R.
1. x + 3 > 0, 2x < 14
Solution:
$x+3>0$
$\Rightarrow x>-3$
$\Rightarrow x \in(-3, \infty) \ldots(\mathrm{i})$
Also, $2 x<14$
$\Rightarrow x<7 \quad$ [Dividing both the sides by 2$]$
$\Rightarrow x \in(-\infty, 7) \ldots$ (ii)
Thus, the solution of the given set of inequalities is the intersection of (i) and (ii).
$(-3, \infty) \cap(-\infty, 7)=(-3,7)$
$\therefore x \in(-3,7)$
Thus, the solution of the given set of inequalities is $(-3,7)$.
