Answer

$\dfrac{a-c}{b} \le x \lt \dfrac{2a-c}{b}$

Work Step by Step

With a, b, and c positive constants, dividing and/or multiplying any if them to both sides of the inequality will not affect the inequality symbol Subtract $c$ to both sides to have: $a-c\le bx \lt 2a-c$ Divide $b$ to both sides to have: $\dfrac{a-c}{b} \le x \lt \dfrac{2a-c}{b}$
