Answer

$\left( -\infty,3 \right)\cup\left( 3,\infty \right)$

Work Step by Step

Solving the inequalities separately, then, \begin{array}{l} -2x\lt-6\\ x\gt3 ,\\\\\text{OR}\\\\ 1-x\gt-2\\ -x\gt-3\\ x\lt3 .\end{array} Using the conjunction "OR", the solution set is the combined solution of both inequalities. Hence, in interval notation form, the solution is $ \left( -\infty,3 \right)\cup\left( 3,\infty \right) $.
