For the product of two numbers to be positive (that is, > 0), either they are both positive or both negative.
Case 1: both positive:
2x - 3 > 0 and 4x + 5 > 0
2x > 3 4x > -5
x > 3/2 and x > -5/4 ---> x > 3/2
Case 2: both negative:
2x - 3 < 0 and 4x + 5 < 0
2x < 3 4x < -5
x < 3 and x < -5/4 ---> x < -5/4
Answer: all the values of x that are either less than -5/4 or greater than 3/2.
