(x + 3)*(2*x - 3) < 0
Detail solution
Given the inequality:
$$\left(x + 3\right) \left(2 x - 3\right) < 0$$
To solve this inequality, we must first solve the corresponding equation:
$$\left(x + 3\right) \left(2 x - 3\right) = 0$$
Solve:
Expand the expression in the equation
$$\left(x + 3\right) \left(2 x - 3\right) = 0$$
We get the quadratic equation
$$2 x^{2} + 3 x - 9 = 0$$
This equation is of the form
a*x^2 + b*x + c = 0

A quadratic equation can be solved
using the discriminant.
The roots of the quadratic equation:
$$x_{1} = \frac{\sqrt{D} - b}{2 a}$$
$$x_{2} = \frac{- \sqrt{D} - b}{2 a}$$
where D = b^2 - 4*a*c - it is the discriminant.
Because
$$a = 2$$
$$b = 3$$
$$c = -9$$
, then
D = b^2 - 4 * a * c = 

(3)^2 - 4 * (2) * (-9) = 81

Because D > 0, then the equation has two roots.
x1 = (-b + sqrt(D)) / (2*a)

x2 = (-b - sqrt(D)) / (2*a)

or
$$x_{1} = \frac{3}{2}$$
$$x_{2} = -3$$
$$x_{1} = \frac{3}{2}$$
$$x_{2} = -3$$
$$x_{1} = \frac{3}{2}$$
$$x_{2} = -3$$
This roots
$$x_{2} = -3$$
$$x_{1} = \frac{3}{2}$$
is the points with change the sign of the inequality expression.
First define with the sign to the leftmost point:
$$x_{0} < x_{2}$$
For example, let's take the point
$$x_{0} = x_{2} - \frac{1}{10}$$
=
$$-3 + - \frac{1}{10}$$
=
$$- \frac{31}{10}$$
substitute to the expression
$$\left(x + 3\right) \left(2 x - 3\right) < 0$$
$$\left(- \frac{31}{10} + 3\right) \left(\frac{\left(-31\right) 2}{10} - 3\right) < 0$$
