at least we have one fewer option than those nagging
abc The multiple choice problems Look on the bright side
right Okay so we're told that x equals a half
which means we can simply plug that value into the
equation or inequality or whatever it is We're not sure
yet to get our answers so we're going to start
plugging Well one over x squared becomes one over one
half square All right so what's one half square What
does that mean Well we keep the numerator this same
and multiply denominators and well here So we get one
half times one half equals one fourth Well we've got
one over a quarter meaning we take the reciprocal in
this whole thing gets flipped and becomes four just like
that Our final term is one over x and what's
one over a half Well again all we do is
flip it to get the reciprocal and it becomes too
well Now we have a really easy looking problem on
our hands is for greater than to less than two
or equal to to hold on Give us a second
We're gonna go with greater than we're wrong Then we 00:01:17.518 --> [endTime] might just hear that wait
