Calculate the sum or difference
More Steps
Evaluate
n^{2}+1-\left(n^{2}+2n+2\right)
If a negative sign or a subtraction symbol appears outside parentheses, remove the parentheses and change the sign of every term within the parentheses
n^{2}+1-n^{2}-2n-2
The sum of two opposites equals 0
0+1-2n-2
Remove 0
1-2n-2
Subtract the numbers
-1-2n
\frac{-1-2n}{n^{2}+2n+2}
\text{Use }\frac{-a}{b}=\frac{a}{-b}=-\frac{a}{b}\text{ to rewrite the fraction}
-\frac{1+2n}{n^{2}+2n+2}
-\frac{1+2n}{n^{2}+2n+2}<0
Change the signs on both sides of the inequality and flip the inequality sign
\frac{1+2n}{n^{2}+2n+2}>0
\text{Separate the inequality into }2\text{ possible cases}
\begin{align}&\left\{ \begin{array}{l}1+2n>0\\n^{2}+2n+2>0\end{array}\right.\\&\left\{ \begin{array}{l}1+2n<0\\n^{2}+2n+2<0\end{array}\right.\end{align}
Solve the inequality
More Steps
Evaluate
1+2n>0
Move the constant to the right side
2n>0-1
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
2n>-1
Divide both sides
\frac{2n}{2}>\frac{-1}{2}
Divide the numbers
n>\frac{-1}{2}
\text{Use }\frac{-a}{b}=\frac{a}{-b}=-\frac{a}{b}\text{ to rewrite the fraction}
