Could I have the first step to get me started?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

Break it into two, 4 < 2x - 2 < 10 4 < 2x - 2 and 2x -2 < 10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4 < 2x - 2 < 10 6 < 2x < 12 6 / 2 = 3 12 / 2 = 6 3 < x < 6 ?

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

Exactly.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

hmm.. that's the way i learnt. what teachers tell me, dont go in my head.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I take online classes so it's more of a challenge for me. Especially since math is my weak subject.

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

Online classes are easy.. i mean their homework.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Easy when you have the time to do them. I'm trying to finish before Christmas, so I'm tight on time.

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

Oh, cool.
