Homework Statement


Let f(x)=1-x-x3. Find all the real values of x satisfying the inequality, 1-f(x)-f3(x)>f(1-5x).

Homework Equations


The Attempt at a Solution


I honestly don't know how to start with this one. Substituting f(x) directly in the inequality doesn't look like a good idea. I need a few hints to begin with.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

FAQ: Solve Inequality: f(x)=1-x-x3, 1-f(x)-f3(x)>f(1-5x)

What is the inequality f(x)=1-x-x3?

The inequality f(x)=1-x-x3 represents a mathematical expression with the function f(x) equal to 1 minus x minus x cubed.

What does 1-f(x)-f3(x)>f(1-5x) mean?

This inequality means that the value of the expression 1 minus f(x) minus f cubed of x is greater than the value of the expression f of 1 minus 5 times x.

How do I solve the inequality f(x)=1-x-x3?

To solve this inequality, you can use algebraic techniques such as factoring, combining like terms, and identifying the critical points where the function changes sign. You can also use a graphing calculator or software to graph the function and visually determine the solution.

What is the solution to the inequality 1-f(x)-f3(x)>f(1-5x)?

The solution to this inequality will be a range of values for x that make the inequality true. You can find this range by solving the inequality algebraically or graphically.

Why is solving inequalities important in science?

Inequalities are used in scientific research to represent relationships between variables and to describe constraints or limits on certain phenomena. Solving inequalities allows scientists to make predictions and draw conclusions about the behavior of these variables. It is also important in determining optimal conditions and identifying potential risks in experiments and studies.
