Solve - frac 1 4 lt frac 3 4 3x - 2 lt frac 1 2 - WAEC Mathematics 2017 Question

Solve: - \(\frac{1}{4}\) < \(\frac{3}{4}\) (3x - 2) < \(\frac{1}{2}\)

A
-\(\frac{5}{9}\) < x <\(\frac{8}{9}\)
B
-\(\frac{8}{9}\) < x <\(\frac{7}{9}\)
C
-\(\frac{8}{9}\) < x <\(\frac{5}{9}\)
D
-\(\frac{7}{9}\) < x <\(\frac{8}{9}\)
correct option: a

\(\frac{3}{4}\) (3x - 2) < \(\frac{1}{2}\); \(\frac{3}{4}\) (3x - 2) > - \(\frac{1}{4}\)

3(3x - 2) < 2; 3(3x - 2) > -1

9x - 6 < 2; 9x - 6 > -1

9x < 8; 9x > 5

x < \(\frac{5}{9}\); x > \(\frac{8}{9}\)
