Solve the inequality : 14x^2

We have to solve the inequality 14x^2 < 13x -
3


Now 14x^2 < 13x -
3


subtract 13x - 3 from both the
sides


=> 14x^2 - 13x + 3 <
0


=> 14x^2 - 7x - 6x + 3 <
0


=> 7x( 2x - 1) -3 (2x -1) <
0


=> (7x - 3) ( 2x -1) <
0


Now for the product of the factors to be less than 0 only
one of them should be negative and the other
positive.


Therefore first
taking:


(7x - 3) <0  and ( 2x -1)
>0


=> x < 3/7 and x >
1/2


But x cannot be less than 3/7 and greater than 1/2 at
the same time, so we can't find valid values here.


Let's
take (7x - 3) > 0  and ( 2x -1) <0


=>
x > 3/7 and x < 1/2


This gives valid values
in the range (3/7 , 1/2)


Therefore the set in
which the values of x lie is (3/7 , 1/2).

Comment on the setting and character of &quot;The Fall of the House of Usher.&quot;How does setting act as a character?

Excellent observation, as it identifies how the settings of Poe's stories reflect the characters of their protagonists. Whet...
