Solve the inequality \(\displaystyle 1 \leq 3 x - 7 < 10\). Write the solution in interval notation.


Since this is a three part inequality we must do the same thing to all three parts.Adding 7 to all three parts gives \(\displaystyle -6 \leq 3 x - 7 < 3 \). Dividing off the coefficient of \(\displaystyle x\) gives \(\displaystyle -2 \leq x < 1\)The solution is \(\displaystyle \big[-2,1\big)\)
