Split it into two parts, solve each part as if it had an "=" sign instead of an inequality.

Ex: -6<3x+2<12

-6<3x+2; -8<3x; -8/3<x

Other side--

3x+2<12; 3x<10; x<10/3

Then put them back together.

-8/3<x<10/3

*Make sure you remember to switch the direction of the inequality symbol if you are dividing by a negative number.*

What is a double inequality?

A double inequality is an inequality where there are two signs, as opposed to one.Ex: an inequality could be 3x < 15A double inequality could be 3x < 15 < x + 20If you'd want to solve that double inequality, you split it into to expressions:3x < 15 and x + 20 > 15Then just solve.x < 5 and x > -5-5 < x < 5
