So, I've come to this but couldn't find how to properly put the things correctly:
The answer should be: S = | -∞; ? | U | ?;+∞ | (Might have more U, Idk...)
I will post the pictures, just wait.

The first one must resemble to the second.

#

The first just has the 4x in more.

#

it is correct

#

(so I could know what to write next time.

#

Just like the second picture where you have S=]-∞;3]U[5,5;+∞[

#

But I want it for the first picture

thick parrot
#

wait it's not correct

#

I am not searching x

#

Yes

#

But

#

...

#

Idk... I'm really lost

thick parrot
#

it would be S =]-∞; 0[ U ]2; 7/3[

look at the graph

#

x will no longer be greater than 0 after x = 2.33 (included)

Oh....... Makes more sense.

#

I'm going to keep this open for a while until I fully understand the logic.

Ok thanks.

thick parrot
#

from ]-∞ to 0[ the function is greater than 0

#

same happens between ]2, 7/3[

I'm translating in my mind, might take some time. But thanks.

I went to chatgpt and it gave me a wrong answer lol

alright i helped him out and he gave me this:

To see why the solution is S = ]-∞; 0[ U ]2; 7/3[, we can use the same sign chart method as before:

Critical points: 0, 7/3, 2
Intervals: (-∞, 0), (0, 2), (2, 7/3), (7/3, ∞)
Test points:
x = -1 (in interval 1): 4*(-3(-1)+7)(-1-2) = 24 > 0
x = 1 (in interval 2): 4*(-3(1)+7)(1-2) = -16 < 0
x = 3/2 (in interval 3): 4*(-3(3/2)+7)(3/2-2) = 3 < 0
x = 4 (in interval 4): 4*(-3(4)+7)(4-2) = 40 > 0
Based on these test points, we can see that the expression is negative in intervals 2 and 3, and positive in intervals 1 and 4. Therefore, the solution to the inequality is:

x ∈ ]-∞, 0[ U ]2, 7/3[

I hope this clears up any confusion, and thank you again for bringing the error to my attention.

@thick parrot So my maths professor told me 4x(7+3x)(x-2)<0 and the answer would be S=] 0;2 [ U ] ⁷/3;+∞ [
But if 4x(7+3x)(x-2)>0 then the answer would be S=] -∞;0 [ U ] 2;⁷/3 [
