TypeSolve quadratic inequality
DifficultyModerate -0.8 This is a straightforward logic question requiring students to factorize a quadratic (giving x<2 or x>4) and compare with x>4. While it tests understanding of implication, the mathematical content is routine and it's worth only 1 mark with multiple-choice format reducing difficulty further.
