Explanation
This is a compound inequality (double inequality) of the form . Following the method shown in Example 10 from the Miscellaneous Examples, we solve both inequalities simultaneously by applying the same operation to all three parts. First, multiply by 2 to clear the denominator, then subtract 11, and finally divide by 3 to isolate x. The solution includes all real numbers from 1 to 11/3, inclusive.
Solution Steps
Step 1: Given inequality:
Step 2: Multiply all parts by 2:
Step 3: Subtract 11 from all parts:
Step 4: Divide all parts by 3:
Step 5: Solution set:
