Hi there,

You could use a graph to solve this problem, but as that's a too much of a hassle. I'll show you the algebraic solution.

For the first equation:

3x + 2 > -1

3x > -3

x > -1

For the second equation:

2x - 1 < 5

2x < 6

x < 3

Here you have the solution to these equations. It's all values of x where x is smaller than 3 and greater than -1.

-1 < x < 3 or in interval notation: (-1, 3)

Hope that helps!

Mike
