Solve the inequality
6 ≤ –3 (2x – 4) < 12
Given inequality
⇒ 6 ≤ -3 (2x – 4) < 12
Dividing the inequality by 3 we get.
⇒ 2 ≤ - (2x – 4) < 4
Multiplying the inequality by -1.
⇒ -2 ≥ 2x – 4 > -4 [multiplying the inequality with -1 changes the inequality sign.]
⇒ -2 + 4 ≥ 2x – 4 + 4 > -4 + 4
⇒ 2 ≥ 2x > 0
Dividing the inequality by 2
⇒ 0 < x ≤ 1
∴ all real numbers x greater than 0 but less than or equal to 1 are solution of given equality.
x ∈ (0, 1]
