Q1
1. Transform the rational inequality into a quadratic inequality by squaring.
Since the inequality is of the form , it is equivalent to . We can square both sides:
2. Solve the quadratic inequality to find the solution set for the first part.
Therefore, the set of values is:
3. Identify the relationship between the expressions in the first and second inequalities.
Let .
We want to solve where .
Notice that substituting into gives:
4. Use the substitution to deduce the range of values for the second inequality.
From the first part, the solution to is .
Substituting into this range:
