Question
Solve the inequality and express your answer in interval notation.$$2 < 3 x-4 < 8$$
Step 1
To solve for $x$, we first need to isolate $x$ in the middle. We can do this by adding $4$ to all parts of the inequality. This gives us $2 + 4 < 3x - 4 + 4 < 8 + 4$, which simplifies to $6 < 3x < 12$. Show more…
