Let's solve the first inequality
:
Start with the first inequality.
Divide both sides by
to isolate
.
Reduce.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
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
and
This combines to the compound inequality
So the answer in interval notation is
(
)
So the answer in set-builder notation is
Here's the graph of the solution set

Note:
There is an
open
circle at
which means that we're excluding this value from the solution set
