    This is a modulus inequality.

    First part: when (6x + 2) is positive

    6x + 2 < 10

    6x < 10 - 2

    6x < 8

    x < 8/6

    x < 4/3

    Second part: when (6x + 2) is negative.

    - (6x + 2) < 10 Divide both sides of inequality by - 1 and change the sign.

    (6x + 2) > - 10

    6x + 2 > - 10

    6x > - 10 - 2

    6x > - 12 Divide both sides by 6.

    x > - 12/6

    x > - 2.

    Combined solution: x - 2

    -2 < x < 4/3.

    Graph is a line on the number line between - 2 and 4/3.

    -2 and 4/3 are excluded from solution.
