1. Transform the rational inequality into a quadratic inequality by squaring.
Since the inequality is of the form −1<expression<1, it is equivalent to ∣expression∣<1. We can square both sides:
−1<x−12x+3<1
(x−12x+3)2<1
(2x+3)2<(x−1)2
2. Solve the quadratic inequality to find the solution set for the first part.
4x2+12x+9<x2−2x+1
3x2+14x+8<0
(3x+2)(x+4)<0
Therefore, the set of values is:
−4<x<−32
3. Identify the relationship between the expressions in the first and second inequalities.
Let f(x)=x−12x+3.
We want to solve −1<f(X)<1 where f(X)=x−22x+1.
Notice that substituting X=x−1 into f(X) gives:
f(x−1)=(x−1)−12(x−1)+3=x−22x−2+3=x−22x+1
4. Use the substitution to deduce the range of values for the second inequality.
From the first part, the solution to −1<f(X)<1 is −4<X<−32.
Substituting X=x−1 into this range:
−4<x−1<−32
−3<x<31
答案−4<x<−32
−3<x<31
