Choice A is the correct answer. Isolate $x$.

1. Subtract 1: $4 < 2x \leq 10$
2. Divide by 2: $2 < x \leq 5$

?�� Strategic Tip: Maintain the strict ($<$) and inclusive ($\leq$) signs exactly as they are.

Choice B is incorrect because it swaps the signs. Choice C is incorrect because it solves incorrectly. Choice D is incorrect because it misses the lower bound.
