Answer:

8/5 < x< 12/5

Explanation:

(2 - x)^2 < 4/25

Take the square root of each side

sqrt((2 - x)^2) <±sqrt( 4/25)

Make two equations

2-x < 2/5 2-x > -2/5

Subtract 2 from each side

2-x-2 < 2/5 -2 2-x-2 > -2/5-2

-x < 2/5 - 10/5 -x > -2/5 - 10/5

-x < -8/5 -x > -12/5

Multiply by -1, remembering to flip the inequality

x> 8/5 x < 12/5

8/5 < x< 12/5
