I am going to begin by separating this problem into two separate inequalities:
1 < 3x - 2 and 3x - 2 ≤10
We will solve these separately
1 < 3x -2 Given
1 + 2 < 3x - 2 + 2 Add 2 to each side
3 < 3x Simplify each side
1 < x Divide each side by 3
Now we will solve the second inequality
3x - 2 ≤ 10 Given
3x - 2 + 2 ≤ 10 + 2 Add 2 to each side
3x ≤ 12 Simplify each side
x ≤ 4 Divide each side by 4
We can now combine the answers of the two inequalities into one statement:
1 < x ≤ 4
