Do it as two inequalities
\n" ); document.write( "-1 < 3-2x
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "3 - 2x < 5
\n" ); document.write( "Doing the 1st inequality,
\n" ); document.write( "-1 < 3 - 2x
\n" ); document.write( "2x < 4
\n" ); document.write( "x < 2
\n" ); document.write( "=====
\n" ); document.write( "Doing the 2nd inequality,
\n" ); document.write( "3 - 2x < 5
\n" ); document.write( "-2x < 2
\n" ); document.write( "2x > 2 (when you mulitply, or divide, by a minus number, then you have to change the direction of the inequality symbol)
\n" ); document.write( "x > 1
\n" ); document.write( "=====
\n" ); document.write( "Combing the two inequality results, x < 2 and x > 1, we get
\n" ); document.write( "1 < x < 2
\n" ); document.write( "========= \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
