Work Step by Step

$\bf{\text{Solution Outline:}}$ Use the concepts of inequalities to translate the given description, \begin{array}{l}\require{cancel}\text{ a number is between $-3$ and $-2$ },\end{array} into symbols. Express the solution set in interval notation. $\bf{\text{Solution Details:}}$ A number between $-3$ and $-2$ is less than $-2,$ but greater than $-3.$ In symbols, this is equivalent to \begin{array}{l}\require{cancel} -3\lt x \lt -2 .\end{array} In interval notation, the solution set is $ \left( -3,-2 \right) .$
