If a< c< b then a<c and c<b
Separate the equation into 2 separate ones and solve them:
X-9 < 4x +3
Subtract 3 from both sides:
X-12 < 4x
Subtract x from both sides:
-12< 3x
Divide both sides by 3:
X > -4
4x+3 < 27
Subtract 3 from both sides
4x < 24
Divide both sides by 4
X <6
Combine to get one inequality:
-4<x<6
6 4/5 = 6.8
4 1/2 = 4.5
