A compound sentence is a sentence that combines two simple sentences using the word AND or the word OR. These sentences can be true or false depending on the sentences themselves and which word joins the sentences together.
Exercise
Consider the following compound sentences. Tell whether they are true or false.

Conjunctions
A statement that combines two inequalities using AND is called a conjunction.
The graph of a conjunction is the overlapping region, or intersection, between the two individual inequalities.
Example
Two ways to write this conjunction are:

Exercise A
x<5
x>2
x<5∧x>2
This conjunction is equivalent to: ____________________________________
x≥−4
x≤−1
x≥−4∧x ≤−1
This conjunction is equivalent to: ____________________________________
x<3
x≥−1
x<3∧x ≥−1
This conjunction is equivalent to: _____________________________________
Note: The symbol for the word “and” is ∧.

Disjunctions
A statement that combines two inequalities using OR is called a disjunction.
The graph of a disjunction is the region formed when the graphs of the two individual inequalities are combined. We shade the regions that are shaded at least once. This combined region is called the union of the sets.
Example
Note: The symbol for the word “or” is ∨ .

This disjunction is equivalent to: _________________________________________
x≤−2
x≥3
x≤−2∨x ≥3
This disjunction is equivalent to: _________________________________________

Summary
Conjunctions
A conjunction is a compound sentence joined by AND. The solution set of a conjunction is the set of values that make both inequalities true. This set is also called the intersection of the two solution sets. On a graph, it is the area where the two individual graphs overlap.
Disjunctions
A disjunction is a compound sentence joined by OR. The solution set of a disjunction is the set of values that make either inequality true (or both). This set is also called the union of the two solution sets. On a graph, it is the total area shaded by the two individual graphs.
