2x + 7 ≤ 3x - 5Find the value of x.

Answer»

2x + 7 ≤ 3x - 5

Start by keeping the variable X on the left side of the inequality, and move everything else to the right side.

We can do this by subtracting 3x from both sides and subtracting 7 from both sides.

-x ≤ -12

Divide both sides by -1 to MAKE x a positive; when DIVIDING by a negative number you will flip the inequality SIGN, so ≤ becomes ≥.

x ≥ 12

Possible solutions for x are any number equal to or GREATER than 12.
