A)

The inequation is as follows:


4x-2<6

To get de solution, we can do:


\begin{gathered} 4x-2<6 \\ 4x<6+2 \\ 4x<4 \\ x<(4)/(4) \\ x<1 \end{gathered}

To give the solution in a number line, we first draw a line, marke the "1" in it and mark the line belowe "", since the solution is the numbers less than 1. Also, the mark in the "1" should be a open dot, meaning, it is not filled, which indicates that "1" is not included in the set.

So:

B) To write the solution in interval notatio, we put the start and the end of the set. Since it goes all the way to minus infinity, we put as:


(-\infty,1)

When it is infinite, we use "(" to indicate it is open set in this side. The other ")", beside the "1" indicates that "1" is not included.
