lilg132 · Answer

3x - 2 < 7

3x < 7 + 2

3x < 9

x < 3

mertsj · Answer

that means that 3x-2 is less than seven units from 0.  Therefore 3x-2 < 7 or 3x-2 > -7  Solve both parts.

The graph would be a line between 3 and -5/3 with open dots on 3 and -5/3 because they are not included in the solution.
