Given:

The compound inequality is


85\leq 17m\leq 136

To find:

The solution of given compound inequality.

Solution:

We have,


85\leq 17m\leq 136

On dividing all sides by 17, we get


(85)/(17)\leq (17m)/(17)\leq (136)/(17)


5\leq m\leq 8

Therefore, the solution of given compound inequality is
5\leq m\leq 8. It can be written as [5,8].
