You don't use interval notation to solve it.
You provide the answer in interval notation.
You can graph it and find the interval where the function is positive.

To the left of the vertical asymptote, the function is positive x%3C-2.
To the right of x=3, the function is positivex%3E3.
Combine those regions to form the solution set.
x%3C-2Ux%3E3
