\

Check:

\

To check, substitute three different values for v into the original inequality: negative 40, a number less than negative 40, and greater than negative 40.

\

Let three values \"\" are substitute in the original inequality, \"\". \ \

\

If \"\" then \"\"     (This is true)

\

If \"\" then \"\"     (This is true)

\

If \"\" then \"\"       (This is false) \"\"
