"Case 1: x-2&#62;0" following: 1 &#62; 0 which is true.
"Case 2: x-2&#60;0&#34;  following: 1 &#60; 0 which is false.

So case 1 must be true (x-2&#62;0 or x &#62; 2).]]></description>

Because you don't know what value x-2 has at this point. If x turned out to be 0.5, then x-2 would be a negative number so you would be multiplying your inequality be a negative which means you have to change the inequality sign from &#62; to &#60;. That&#039;s why you square it to ensure that you are multiplying by a positive.</blockquote>

That sounds somewhat smart. Thanks]]></description>

		<blockquote>if a/b &#62; 0 then a*b &#62; 0</blockquote>

so (a/b &#62; 0) = (a*b &#62; 0)?

Why can't I then?
(X/(X-2))-1 &#62; 0
x^2-2x-1 &#62; 0

that gives wrong answer :I]]></description>

if you multiply the whole line it has to be with a positive number so that the inequality does not change sign, so you use the square of the denominator (x-2).]]></description>
