Homework Equations





The Attempt at a Solution

Thanks in advance. This is my first post and I am unfamiliar with formatting this kind of stuff so I will work on getting better at that aspect.

That looks OK. What's your question?
 
The book says the solution is (-13/4)<x<(-11/4).

It should be noted that this particular book is notorious for being rife with errors, but I always want to make sure that I am not wrong. Thank you LCKurtz.
