Amanita, let's carefully solve the problem step by step.
Step 1: Understanding the Problem
We are given the inequality:
We need to find all values of that satisfy this inequality and choose the correct interval from the options.
Step 2: Analyzing the Exponential Inequality
Both sides have the same base, , which is less than 1. For exponential inequalities with a base between 0 and 1, the direction of the inequality sign reverses when comparing exponents.
So, the rule is: If , then is equivalent to .
Step 3: Applying the Rule
Using the rule above, we rewrite the inequality:
Step 4: Writing the Solution as an Interval
The solution in interval notation is:
Now, let's check which answer choice matches this interval.
- The correct answer is:
Let me confirm this by solving the inequality using a tool. Amanita, after solving the inequality, we find that the solution is (since ).
So, the correct answer in interval notation is:
This matches the answer choice: .
