Let's solve the first inequality

:

Start with the first inequality.

Add

to both sides.

Combine like terms on the right side.

Now let's solve the second inequality

:

Start with the second inequality.

Add

to both sides.

Combine like terms on the right side.
So our answer is
or
So the solution in interval notation is:
(
)
(
)
So the solution in set notation is:
Here's the graph of the solution set
Note:
There is an
open circle at

which means that we're excluding that value from the solution set.
Also, there is an
