Question

Solve compund inequality
-3<2x-1<5

Answer 1

-1<x<3

Explanation:

We are given that -3<2x-1<5

In order to solve this compound inequality, we need to isolate the variable. Thus, we can first add 1 to all three parts, isolating the x. We then get

-2<2x<6

Now, all we need to do is divide both sides by 2, which will give us one x. This results in our answer, or

-1<x<3
