1)  


Taking reciprocals on both sides (and thus reversing the inequality sign),



8x + 84x - 2


4x-10


x

x2+5x+3/x+2 < x  ......................................[Main inequality]


Now,we must multiply the inequality by x+2.


However 2 cases arise depending on whether x+2 is positive or not.


If it isnt then the sign of the inequality will change.


CASE 1: x+2 is positive


x+2 > 0


x > -2........................................................[condition 1]


Multiplying the Main inequality by x+2 (without changing the inequality sign)


x2 + 5x + 3 < x2 + 2x


3x + 3 < 0


x < -1.....................................................[condition 2]


Combining conditions 1 and 2 gives   -2 < x < -1 as the solution to case 1)


CASE 2:  x+2 is negative


x + 2 < 0


x < -2...................................................[condition 3]


Multiplying the Main inequality by x + 2 (and changing the sign of the inequality),


x2+5x+3 > x2 + 2x


3x + 3 > 0


x > -1.....................................................[condition 4]


Since conditions 3 and 4 are contradictory,we must reject case 2.


Hence the final answer is,


-2 < x < -1
