### Math Inequalities

#### Problem Set

**(b)** 
\[ \left| \frac{2x}{3} + \frac{4}{5} \right| - 1 \leq 2 \]

**(c)** 
\[ \left| \frac{2x}{3} + \frac{4}{5} \right| - 1 \geq 2 \]

In this problem set, you are required to solve the inequalities involving absolute values. For each inequality:

1. Isolate the absolute value expression.
2. Split the inequality into two separate cases based on the definition of absolute value.
3. Solve each resulting inequality for the variable \( x \).
4. Combine the solutions to find the final solution set.

### Detailed Solution Steps for Problem (b):

For the inequality,
\[ \left| \frac{2x}{3} + \frac{4}{5} \right| - 1 \leq 2 \]

1. Add 1 to both sides to isolate the absolute value:
\[ \left| \frac{2x}{3} + \frac{4}{5} \right| \leq 3 \]

2. Write the inequality without the absolute value as two separate inequalities:
\[ -3 \leq \frac{2x}{3} + \frac{4}{5} \leq 3 \]

3. Solve the compound inequality for \( x \):

   For \( -3 \leq \frac{2x}{3} + \frac{4}{5} \):
   - Subtract \(\frac{4}{5}\) from both sides:
   \[ -3 - \frac{4}{5} \leq \frac{2x}{3} \]
   \[ -\frac{15}{5} - \frac{4}{5} \leq \frac{2x}{3} \]
   \[ -\frac{19}{5} \leq \frac{2x}{3} \]
   - Multiply both sides by 3:
   \[ -\frac{57}{5} \leq 2x \]
   - Divide both sides by 2:
   \[ -\frac{57}{10} \leq x \]

   For \( \frac{2x}{3} + \frac{4}{5} \le
