5 ≤ 2x-3 < 3
There is no solution because the 5 on the left is NOT less than
or equal to the 3 on the right.
------------------------------------
Maybe the 3 on the right was a typo and should have been a 7
instead. Then it would have a solution:
We solve for x in the middle
5 ≤ 2x-3 < 7 <-We add +3 to all three sides to get rid of the -3
+3 +3 < +3
----------------
8 ≤ 2x < 10 <-We divide all three sides by 2 to get rid of the 2
8/2 ≤ 2x/2 < 10/2
4 ≤ x < 5
Sometimes that is abbreviated as [4,5),
The bracket [ on the left means there is a ≤
between the 4 and the understood x.
The parentheses ) on the right means there
is a < between the understood x and and the 5.
--------------------------------
But the problem stated has NO SOLUTION.
