\n(1) Write the inequality as an equation, and solve the equation.
\n(2) Determine any values that make the denominator equal 0.
\n(3) On a number line, mark each of the critical values from steps 1 and 2.
\nThese values will create intervals on the number line.
\n(4) Select a test point in each interval, and check to see if that test point
\nsatisfies the inequality. (Find the intervals which satisfy the inequality).
\n(5) Mark the number line to reflect the values and intervals that satisfy
\nthe inequality.
\n(6) State your answer using the desired form of notation.<\/p>\n
