Solution : x > 10 or (10,oo)x>10or(10,)

Explanation:

- 2/(x-10) < 0 or 2/(x-10) > 02x10<0or2x10>0 . Critical point is

x -10=0 or x=10 ; x != 10 x10=0orx=10;x10 since for x=10x=10 , the function

is undefined.

Sign change observation:

When x <10 x<10 sign of 2/(x-10) 2x10 is - ; i.e <0 ;i.e<0

When x >10 x>10 sign of 2/(x-10) 2x10 is + ; i.e > 0 +;i.e>0

Solution : x > 10 or (10,oo)x>10or(10,) [Ans]
