TopicInequalities
TypeRational inequality algebraically
DifficultyStandard +0.3 This is a standard rational inequality requiring algebraic manipulation (bringing to common denominator, finding critical points, sign analysis). While it's FP2, this is a routine technique that stronger students handle mechanically. Slightly above average difficulty due to the need for careful sign analysis across multiple intervals, but no novel insight required.
