For this case we have the following inequality:

[tex]1 <3x-2 <10[/tex]

Adding 2 on all three sides and inequality we have:

[tex]1 + 2 <3x-2 + 2 <10 + 2\\3 <3x <12[/tex]

We divide the three sides of inequality by 3:

[tex]\frac {3} {3} <\frac {3x} {3} <\frac {12} {3}\\1 <x <4[/tex]

Thus, the solution is given by the values of "x" between 1 and 4 without including 1 and 4. That is:

[tex](1,4)[/tex]

Answer:

The solution is given by x: (1,4)
