What will be the solution (4 to 5) system of inequality : $-8≤5x-3< 7$

Options:

$[-1, 2)$

$[-1, -2)$

$[-2, 3)$

$[-3, 2)$

Correct Answer:

$[-1, 2)$

Explanation:

The correct answer is option (1) : $[-1, 2)$

$-8≤5x-3< 7$

$-8+3≤5x< 7+3$

$-5≤5x< 10$

$-1≤x < 2$

Solution set is { x: x ∈ R, -1, ≤ x < 2 } i.e $[-1, 2)$
