That is, START with the inequality 2 < x and through a series of manipulations, conclude that
1+ < V5. It may be useful to use simple inequalities that we know are true, such as ;
will also be beneficial to recall the_transitive property of inequalities. (If a<b and b<c then
a<c.) Note that this time you need an UPPER bound, not a LOWER bound. (Hint: Start with
2 < x and divide both sides by 2x).
