2x - 2 < x + 4 < 3x - 2
Handle as two separate inequalities
--------------------------
2x - 2 < x + 4
Subtract x from both sides
x - 2 < 4
Add 2 to both sides
x < 6
--------------------------
x + 4 < 3x - 2
Subtract x from both sides
4 < 2x - 2
Add 2 to both sides
6 < 2x
Divide both sides by 2
3 < x
--------------------------
Combine both solutions
3 < x < 6 <------
