QUESTION 04
The number of integers that satisfy the following inequalities \(-x < x^2 < 6\) is \(\bbox[10px, border: 2px solid red]{(1)}\)
Solution
[s2If current_user_can(access_s2member_level3)]
\begin{equation*}
\begin{split}
& x^2 < 6 \\\\
& x^2 – 6 < 0 \\\\
& (x + \sqrt{6})(x – \sqrt{6}) < 0
\end{split}
\end{equation*}
\begin{equation*}
\begin{split}
& -x < x^2 \\\\
& 0 < x^2 + x \\\\
& 0 < x(x + 1)
\end{split}
\end{equation*}

Solution:
\(\{- \sqrt{6} < x < 0\}\), the integers are \(-2, -1\)
\(\{1 < x < \sqrt{6}\}\), the integers are \(2\)
The number of integers are \(\bbox[5px, border: 2px solid magenta] {3}\)
