Question 163095: Solve.
-4≤3x-3≤-2
The solution is: [x|__ ≤ x ≤ __]



Answer by joecbaseball(37)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Solve this in two parts:
-4 ≤ 3x – 3 AND 3x – 3 ≤ -2
In the first part, solve for x to get -1/3 ≤ x
In the second part, solve for x to get x ≤ 1/3
So, your answer is [ x|-1/3 ≤ x ≤ 1/3]
Note: It may help you see the answer if you plot each value of x on a number line. For most students, that is easier to see than just seeing the values.
Good luck !
