  2. Solve each three-part inequality and write the answer in interval notation.
    -6 \le 4x + 2 < 14-1 < \dfrac{x - 4}{2} \le 35 \le 8 - 3x < 20-4 < \dfrac{3 - x}{5} < 1
  3. Solve a three-part inequality with variables in every part and explain why you cannot work on all parts at once.
  4. Hannah's bike computer: find the speeds that trigger the warning.
