Solve the compound inequality. 2x-10 and 9x

Question

Solve the compound inequality.

2x>-10 and 9x<18. I don't know how to do this. Can someone help me with the steps?

First I would isolate x. If you do that, then you get x>-5 and x<2, now you simply get an interval where x can bee any number. -5 < x < 2

2x>-10= 9x<18                                                                                                        2x-9x=18+10                                                                                                              -7x=28                                                                                                                    -x=28/7                                                                                                                              -x=4                                                                                                                   now multiply both sides by -                                                                                 x=-4 answer
