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. |
