Answer

$\displaystyle \left\{x\ |\ \frac{2}{3}\leq x\leq 3\right\}$ or $\displaystyle \left[\frac{2}{3},3\right]$

Work Step by Step

$-5\leq 4-3x\leq 2\qquad$ ... subtract 4 $-9\leq-3x\leq-2\qquad$ ... divide with -3 (negative) ... the inequalities change direction.... $3\displaystyle \geq x\geq\frac{2}{3}$ Solution set: $\displaystyle \left\{x\ |\ \frac{2}{3}\leq x\leq 3\right\}$ or $\displaystyle \left[\frac{2}{3},3\right]$
