Substitute the value given in place of x and then do the arithmetic. If the inequality is then a true statement, the value satisfies the inequality. If it is a false statement, then the value does not satisfy the inequality. In this case, if the derived value is equal to either end point, then the statement is false because you have < signs and not signs.
