0< 2 + 3x < 8
0<2+3x<8
step 1:subtract 2 from both sides
(it'll be) 0-2 <3x< 8-2 = -2< 3x < 6
now divide everything by 3 (make sure you switch both signs too)
(now it'll be) -2/3 > x > 6/3 = -2/3 > x > 2
your answer is negative two thirds is greater than x which is greater than 2 :]
0<3x<8-2
0<3x<6
0<x<2
