Inequalities

[Guest]

Solve the following inequality. Write the solution set in interval notation and graph it
-3 < 3x – 5 < – 2

+5 +5 +5
2<3x<3
3

.66<x<1

The solution set is (.66, 1)
( )
-1 0 1

Am I close?

Use exact values: "2/3", not "0.6", "0.66", "0.666", or some other decimal approximation.

With this correction, your "interval notation" solution will be correct. I don't know what the parentheses and row of numbers mean, so I'm afraid I can't comment on that. Sorry.

Okay, I will use exact values, it did make it easier. The other part was my attempt to graph it on a number line. :? I really appreciate your help. It is much easier to do this with people coaching you to make sure you don't venture to far off track.
