Can anyone help me solve the following inequality?

. . .|2t + 5|<3

Can you show me step by step how to do this? Thank you!
 
To solve absolute-value inequalities, follow these patterns:

. . . . ."|a| < b" becomes "-b < a < b"

. . . . ."|a| > b" becomes "a > b or a < -b"

Then solve the resulting (regular) inequalities by whatever method(s) you've learned.
