Give the answer in interval notation:

-1%22%22%3C=%22%228x%2B2%22%22%3C=%22%223

Add -2 to all 3 sides

-3%22%22%3C=%22%228x%22%22%3C=%22%221

Divide all 3 sides by 8

-3%2F8%22%22%3C=%22%22x%22%22%3C=%22%221%2F8

Interval notation:

matrix%281%2C5%2C+++++%22%5B%22%2C-3%2F8%2C+%22%2C%22%2C+1%2F8%2C%22%5D%22%29
